"I think we ought to read only the kind of books that wound and stab us. If the book we are reading doesn't wake us up with a blow on the head, what are we reading it for? ...we need the books that affect us like a disaster, that grieve us deeply, like the death of someone we loved more than ourselves, like being banished into forests far from everyone, like a suicide. A book must be the axe for the frozen sea inside us."

This is the commercial I was talking about in class today when we were talking about the part on pg. 261 with all the parentheses.
I like the connection, Becca. I definitely had never seen this ad before. Too much DVRing I guess...
