Does anyone still read long and complex works, either from the past or the present? Is the
role of a professional reader and reviewer of manuscripts still relevant? Book Matters closely
analyzes these questions and others. Alan Sica surmises that the concentration span required
for studying and discussing complex texts has slipped away, as undergraduate classes are
becoming inundated by shorter, easier-to-teach scholarly and literary works. In an engaging
style, he gives readers succinct analyses of books and ideas that once held the interest of
millions of discerning readers.
Book Matters is not a nostalgic cry for lost ideas, but instead a stark reminder of just how
aware and analytically illuminating certain scholars were prior to the Internet, and how
endangered the book is in this era of pixelated communication.
