Delivery time: 8-12 business days (International)
Do we still know how to read a novel?' John Sutherland, Chairman of the 2005 Booker Prize Committee, asks. His answer is an unequivocal, 'No.' But Sutherland has not given up hope. With acerbic wit and intellect, he traces the history of what it used to mean to be wellread and tells readers what it still means today while reminding readers how the delicate charms of fiction can be at once wonderful and inspired and infuriating. On one level this is a book about novels but at a deeper level, this is a book in which one of the most intimate ttettes is describedone in which a reader meets a novel. However, in order for the relationship to take its proper course, a reader must know how to read it! Sutherland helps readers:Pick the right book for them among the cattle call of prepackaged blurbs and enticing cover artRecognize a misleading title at first glanceLook beyond the politics of book reviewersLearn to read the extrasepigraphs, forewords, afterwordsto understand themes only hinted at in the main textFind real aspects of the author cleverly hidden in the narrative structureAnd much moreIn a book that is as wry and humorous as it is learned and opinionated, John Sutherland tells you everything you always wanted to know about how to read fiction better than you do now (but, were afraid to ask).
