I think a book is often an account, or a series of accounts, that create a world that is sort of half of the world. There are references to a world, and then the reader supplies the other fifty percent.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
A book is a version of the world. If you do not like it, ignore it; or offer your own version in return.
No book includes the entire world. It's limited. And so it doesn't seem like an aesthetic compromise to have to do that. There's so much other material to write about.
A book is a book is a book.
Books are a finer world within the world.
A book is either autobiography or a novel.
Everything in the world exists to end up in a book.
I think of every book as a single entity, and some have later gone on to become a series, often at the request of readers.
Books are our umbilical cord to life. They connect us deeply, and with more meaning, to the world. They aren't about escaping from ourselves but expanding ourselves and finding within us the tools we need to survive.
Out of respect to writers, you have to read the book in the way in which the author visualised it going out into the world.
A book is simply the container of an idea like a bottle; what is inside the book is what matters.
