(P/B) THE COMPLETE POLYSYLLABIC SPREE

Παρουσίαση

Nick Hornby - author of the bestsellers About a Boy and Fever Pitch - takes us on a literary journey of the books he bought, the books he read and his thoughts on reading in the perceptive and wickedly funny The Complete Polysyllabic Spree - The Diary of an Occasionally Exasperated but Ever Hopeful Reader.
This is not a book of reviews. This not a book that sneers at other books. This is a book about reading - about enjoying books wherever and however you find them.
Nick Hornby is first and foremost a reader and he approaches books like the rest of us: hoping to pick up one he can't put down. The Complete Polysyllabic Spree is a diary of sorts, charting his reading life over two years. It is a celebration of why we read - its pleasures, its disappointments and its surprises. And above all, it is for you - the ever hopeful reader. (From the publisher)
