Think reading means you re smart? Think again We tend to think that reading is a sign of intelligence, that we’re improved by it. But are our assumptions well-founded? Not really, according to an array of literary front-runners including Fran Lebowitz and Nick Hornby. Writer Barbara Nichol explores the assumptions we have about reading, readers and books in a three-part IDEAS series. Social Sharing CBC Radio · Posted: May 13, 2020 6:03 PM ET | Last Updated: April 30 I have a love of the book, Fran Lebowitz tells IDEAS.

Whenever I would tell someone I was cooking from Herman Melville’s Moby-Dick for my next column, they would gleefully shriek, “Whale steaks!” And I would dither a bit and explain that no, those are illegal in America, and that I was instead planning to make two forms of chowder, clam and cod, that weren’t going to be very different from each other. In our Chowhound-fueled, extreme-eating kind of world, I felt a little silly. Chowder is an easy dish, and while there’s raging conflict over the primacy of New York style (tomato-based) versus New England style (white), and the finer variations of each, the topic seems to inspire passion in inverse proportion to its importance.

Crown, 768 pp., $45.00 If Ulysses S. Grant’s memoirs became an accidental modernist classic, it was because he evacuated his own personality so completely from his account that he figured as another instrument of war. Barack Obama’s A Promised Land is somewhere at the opposite end of the spectrum. The expectations for the book recall the expectations for his presidency. Obama is aware of this and aware that his ability to report on the progress of his self-awareness was always part of his appeal. Addressing a crowded hall at the New York Public Library in the postelection haze, Zadie Smith proclaimed Obama an evolutionary advance in the history of democratic representation: “This new president doesn’t just speak for his people. He can speak them.” Two years into his presidency, the head of the Harvard history department declared, at book length, that Obama was a Pragmatist philosopher king, who had planted the torch of John Dewey and William James in the Oval ....
Email Address As true n+1 heads know, n+1 liquidated our office earlier this year to save money on rent. And liquidated is right! Now we store all our bookstore inventory in the corner of a wine cellar (pictured), generously loaned to us by an anonymous restaurateur and friend of n+1. It’s dark in here! Sometimes, the basement floods, and a little moat of stagnant wine-water glugs up around our inventory; we’ve started wearing our waterproof boots to work. Anyway, we’re begging you from our wet basement: PLEASE HELP US GET OUR INVENTORY OUT OF HERE! BEFORE IT GETS WET! We have a lot of great stuff in stock, all of it perfect for holiday gift-giving: new books by our brilliant contributors, anthologies from our contemporary art imprint Paper Monument, beautiful tote bags and posters, and an assortment of back issues to fill the n+1-shaped holes in your loved ones’ bookshelves, hearts, and minds. Place orders before Friday, 12/11 to ensure USPS ground delivery by Chr ....
