Chapter 4 · Memory

A look back helps us understand this new path. Before everything changed, readers were meticulous with their books: they underlined them, annotated them, carried them everywhere.

Reading is not a place, it is a habit that goes with you — on the train, in the waiting room, in bed with the lights off.

That is why the reader had to adapt to every moment of the day, and not the other way around.
