I love books!

    A few years ago, while I was reading, If on a winter's night a traveler, the 1979 novel by Italo Calvino, a passage challenged me to define what it was that I loved so much about reading.  Calvino writes,

    “Your house, being the place in which you read, can tell us the position books occupy in your life, if they are a defense you set up to keep the outside world at a distance, if they are a dream into which you sink as if into a drug, or bridges you cast towards the outside, toward the world that interests you so much that you want to multiply and extend its dimensions through books.”
    ​
    While there have been times that I have read to escape from the outside world, my primary reason for reading is to learn about people that I will never have the chance to meet and places that I will never be able to visit.  I read to visit times gone by, as well as have experiences that I wouldn’t in the ordinary course of my life.
