It brilliantly diagnoses in the present conditions of reading, not a demise but an ongoing reprise of the many historical incarnations of 'bookhood'.' Steven Connor, University of Cambridge 'Dazzlingly brilliant. ... a great book [... of] grand ambitions and stunning achievements ... an amazing accomplishment.' N.
