Title: This Brontosaurus Bardolater
Review: If you wake up every morning to lethargy, being unsure whether or not your day will include the latest Survivor or Must See TV, its time you did yourself the favor and purchased How to Read and Why by the fabulous Sterling Professor of Humanites at Yale, Harold Bloom. Bloom's premise is simple, in this new technological era, information is endlessly available to us, but not necessarily wisdom. He proposes a sort of guide book to help us find true wisdom amongst all of the fluff we're regularly exposed to in modern times. The wisdom is found in wisdom literature amongst a genre he refers to as imaginative. The book weaves a tremendous path featuring Shakespeare, Hemingway, Dostoevsky, Faulkner, Keats, Shelley, Dickinson, Stendhal and on and on and on. Naturally, Bloom breathes most life into his beloved Bard from Stratford. The chapter about Hamlet steals the show most magnificently urging you to read once again the greatest story of our time.
