A Quick, Easy Guide to Reading

Eduardo Berti

NARRATIVE, FCE, 2023. 176 PAGES.

‘If reading can be a celebration, why limit yourself to a single set of rules and unimaginative guidelines?' In these pages, Eduardo Berti proposes a range of alternative ways to read fiction: actively and creatively, employing simple but innovative individual, collective, analytical and comic approaches.
The book contains hundreds of exercises, including creating a ‘poetic confessional', building a house through the pages of a book or using that same book - or another, remember there are no rules here - as a pillow, reading over the phone to a stranger, reading in a random order determined by the role of the dice, literary bingo, or unravelling the mystery hidden in the letters of the story you're reading. A Quick, Easy Guide to Reading teaches us to explore our beloved books in unexpected ways.
‘Expose the falsehood contained in the dictum that one has to turn the page in a certain way.'
Eduardo Berti.
