Prompts for Deep Reading

“Lists of questions for bookish people”

“An excellent gift for the bookish journal-keeper in your life. Esp. love the notion of books as "coordinates of memory." Here is how @Leigh Patterson describes it: "An “In Situ” edition of prompts centered around the theme of deep reading. Or: recognizing books as coordinates of memory, temporary worlds we willingly inhabit, quiet shapers of self. The ways they mark time, mirror change, and contain the capacity to alter how we see everything else. Structured in four acts, this collection moves from origin to aftermath: how we became readers, the ways we read now, how books move between us, and how they continue to inform our becoming."”
