A profound meditation on the printed word. One of the best books I've read in a long time.

Brilliant and Liberating: A Must-Read for Readers (and Non-Readers)!

2009年7月1日にアメリカ合衆国でレビュー済み

Amazonで購入

This is among the very best books I've ever read, and is so packed with profound insight that I'm not sure how to review it, even after having read the print version a few months ago and having just finished listening to the unabridged audiobook. But one would hope that two passes through the book are sufficient, and I've recently gotten into the practice of reviewing every book I read (or listen to), so I guess it's time to try.

I think that the main thing this book accomplishes is to "invert" our relationship to books. Most of us are conditioned to treat books as though they're fixed objects with fixed contents, and so our job is to struggle to attain an "accurate" and "complete" understanding of each book, much as a scientist might aim to understand an atom, rock, or starfish. Therefore, if we're unable to properly understand a book in the first place, or if we come to misunderstand or forget a book over time, the fault and failure are ours.

Instead of falling prey to this sad state of affairs, Bayard teaches us that we should view books as being there to serve us, not the other way around (hence the inversion), and so we should freely take (or not take) what we need and want from books. And the "us" I refer to is each of us as an individual, as well as all of us collectively, interacting both with each other and with the (essentially infinite) universe of books.

When we adopt this perspective, we realize that there's no sin in skimming books, forgetting books, abandoning books, learning about books through the comments of others, interpreting books in an idiosyncratic way, disagreeing with books, judging that books are poorly written, or even deliberately not reading particular books at all. Sometimes it might even be permissible to talk about books you haven't read.

Bayard convincingly leads us to this perspective in a systematic and sophisticated way, using well-chosen case studies and very witty and entertaining prose (translated flawlessly from the original French). Sometimes Bayard engages in what seems like provocative hyperbole, but I don't think that this book is quite a work of satire, since all of the ideas fit together too coherently. Rather, I think that even Bayard's hyperbole always contains a kernel of truth, and often much more than a kernel, so part of the reader's challenge and fun is to figure out how seriously to take him.

Again, this is one the very best books I've ever read, so of course I highly recommend it, especially for people who read with any regularity. Indeed, for that audience this book is a must read, even though the book makes the case that non-reading is also sometimes appropriate. This book has the potential to radically transform your relationship to books in a way that's liberating and even empowering.

Ultimately, Bayard doesn't argue for not reading, or reading in a lazy or sloppy way. He argues for reading actively and wisely, with a conscious awareness of what one hopes to gain from reading.

Absolutely splendid

More than a practical guide, this is a meditation on reading impeccably translated by Jeffrey Mehlman. Drawing on sources from Gustave Flaubert and Oscar Wilde to Umberto Eco and David Lodge, the book is insightful, scholarly, shocking and profoundly convincing. This is a must for any bibliophile's holiday stocking and a source of great comfort for those of us who have never got through Proust. A magnificent tour de force.

Pierre, almost thou persuadest me to be a non-reader! [1]

Bayard's book is both witty and insightful. Here are the two messages I take away from it:

2. Being willing to fearlessly engage about books we have not read cover-to-cover (or at all) opens the door to greater creativity within us, as we are less likely to get entirely wrapped up in the ideas of others, but rather we can use whatever elements we have encountered as a springboard for our own creativity.

In each chapter, Bayard explores some element of "non-reading," using a different book as a text. For example, he draws on Graham Greene's The Third Man [2] as an example of how to speak in society about books we haven't read (as the protagonist is forced to do at one point) and on Umberto Eco's The Name of the Rose [3] to demonstrate decoding what a book is about only from what you've heard about it (as the protagonist of that book must do). One chapter even uses a film as its text, none other than the brilliant Groundhog Day (on how to seduce someone by talking about books you haven't read). Ironically, I will surely go on to read several of the books he described (but don't worry, Pierre, I'm sure I will forget them soon after.) One of the funniest innovations is Bayard's system of footnoting, which consists of the following abbreviations:

Note there is no marking for "Book I've read," as part of the premise is that there is no book we have simply read. Even those books we have read cover-to-cover are books we have already begun to forget or to remember incorrectly.

Another fun element is a game called Humiliation, introduced in the chapter on "Not Being Ashamed," in which players name a book they have not read but then gain a point for each person in the group who has read it, i.e., winning only by demonstrating oneself as less well-read. We played that game at a recent family event and had loads of fun humbling ourselves. (It also works with films.)

There is even a surprising revelation in the penultimate chapter "Inventing Books," which is a significant accomplishment for a book of this genre. (It's like The Sixth Sense [4] of literary criticism. Or The Village [5]. Or Invincible [6].)

Just as Anne Fadiman's essay "Never Do That To A Book" in Ex Libris: Confessions of a Common Reader [7], Bayard may actually have changed my relationship to books, giving me license and a rationale to appreciate, interpret, and - most importantly - talk about books that I have experienced more casually than others.

* A friend asked me how forgetting a book can lead to a meaningful interaction: Bayard's premise, with which I concur, is that as we forget books, what we actual remember reflects less the book and more ourselves, which is a valuable starting place for a meaningful interaction.
