"They say reading is dead. But it isn't. It's just... pathologically crippled."
-John Stewart, The Daily Show
My best friend tells me that "no one reads anymore!". Is this true? I was already aware that close familial relationships and physical activity were passe, but books? What undereducated, inattentive member of our society couldn't appreciate Oscar Wilde's disturbingly relevant dissertation on morality, The Picture of Dorian Grey? How difficult and foreign a notion, to envision a nation in which our collectively violent, obese, oversexed culture would eschew the intricate works of Hemingway and Steinbeck to further indulge in their mindless television worship! Were it not for my implicit faith in my 'BFF's cultural savvy, I might disbelieve her!
Oh, the pleasant sting of grandiose sarcasm...
