For what was it about books that once finished left the reader in a bit of a haze and made them reread the last few sentences in order to continue the ringing in their hearts a while longer, so as not to let the silence illumine the fact that reading, they had gained something – distance, a lesson, a companion, a new world – but now, after the last full stop, they had lost something palpable and felt a little emptier than before.

About This Quote

If you have ever read a book and enjoyed it so much that you couldn’t wait to find out what happens next, then you know what I mean. If that happens to you, then you have found something that cannot be described in words. You have now been enlightened by a book. Of course, now that you have been enlightened, the feeling fades with each new page as the memory will always remain a little less vibrant than before.
