From today’s Writer’s Almanac:
“I am very grateful to the electronic world for making my life easier, but there is something about holding a book — the smell and the world of association. Even when e-books are perfected, as they surely will be, it will be like being in bed with a very well-made robot rather than a warm, soft, human being whom you love.”
The quote is from Anne Fadiman, to The Guardian. I could hardly agree more.
