(1995) Book ~ Harold Bloom chapters.indigo Review Nothing can replace the wonder of reading great literature. Harold Bloom describes how to delve into classic works of literature and emerge with a stronger sense of self. Empowering, practical and insightful, How to Read and Why offers the general reading public a wealth of inspiration, self-help and shrewd analysis surrounding seminal works of literature. This unique volume features sections on short stories, poems, novels and plays, examining works by such eminent writers as Shakespeare, Ernest Hemingway, Emily Dickinson, Jane Austen and Charles Dickens. Bloom not only reveals how to read a text, but the pleasure such reading can bring by opening the mind and enriching the spirit. From the Publisher "Information is endlessly available to us; where shall wisdom be found?" is the crucial question with which renowned literary critic Harold Bloom commences this impassioned book on the pleasures and benefits of reading well. For more than forty years, Bloom has transformed college students into lifelong readers with his unrivaled love for literature. Now, at a time when faster and easier electronic media threaten to eclipse the practice of reading, Bloom draws on his experience as critic, teacher, and prolific reader to plumb the great books for their sustaining wisdom. Shedding all polemic, Bloom addresses the solitary reader, who, he urges, should read for the purest of all reasons: to discover and augment the self. Always dazzling in his ability to draw connections between texts across continents and centuries, Bloom instructs readers in how to immerse themselves in the different literary forms. Probing discussions of the works of beloved writers such as William Shakespeare, Ernest Hemingway, Jane Austen, Walt Whitman, Emily Dickinson, Charles Dickens, and William Faulkner highlight the varied challenges and delights found in short stories, poems, novels, and plays. Bloom not only provides illuminating guidance on how to read a text but also illustrates what such reading can bring -- aesthetic pleasure, increased individuality and selfknowledge, and the lifetime companionship of the most engaging and complex literary characters. Bloom's engaging prose and brilliant insights will send you hurrying back to old favorites and entice you to discover new ones. His ultimate faith in the restorative power of literature resonates on every page of this infinitely rewarding and important book. Reader Reviews Average Reader Review: Number of Reviews: 1 1. WOW Reviewer: Gillian from Windsor Date: 7/5/2000 7:47:51 PM Wow, I JUST started this book and it is amazing. Just in the introduction and prologue it gives all this ‘theory’ of why it’s important to read – for yourself, no one else – and what you can get out of it. IN the book he talks about individual authors and kind of interprets them, or rather helps you to gain a better understanding of the work you’re reading. An excellent book, spurs you on to read more.
