About This Audiobook

In This Episode

We live surrounded by words, yet rarely give ourselves enough time to truly read them.

The Art of Reading Slowly is an intimate exploration of what happens when we resist the urgency of modern life and return to the page without haste.

Through reflections on attention, memory, silence, and the rituals surrounding reading, this audiobook considers the possibility that reading slowly is not simply a literary practice, but a way of inhabiting the world.

For the reader who has forgotten how beautiful it can be to linger.
