Reading or Pleasure
The first thing I want to insist on is that reading should be enjoyable. O f course, there are m a n y books that we all have to read, either to pass examinations or to acquire information, from which it is impossible to extract enjoyment. W e are reading them for instruction, and the best w e can hope is that our need for it will enable us to get through them without tedium. Such books w e read unwillingly rather than willingly. But that is not the sort of reading I have in mind. The books I shall mention in due course will help you neither to get a degree nor to earn your living, they will not teach you to sail a boat or run a stopped motor, but they will help you to live more fiilly.However, they cannot do unless you enjoy reading them.
Every man is his o w n best critic. Whatever the learned say about a book, however unanimous they are in their praise of it, unless it interests you, it is no business of yours. Don’t forget that critics often make mistakes; the history of criticism is full of the serious mistakes some of them have made, and you are the final judge of the value to you of the book you are reading. This, of course, applies to the books I a m going to r e c ommend to your attention.
We are none of us exactly like everyone else, only rather like, and it would be unreasonable to suppose that the books that have meant a great deal to me should be precisely those that will m e a n a great deal to you. If any of you w h o are not interested in the books I introduce to you, just put them down; they will be of no service to you if you do not enjoy them. N o one is under an obligation to read poetry, fiction or literature. H e must read them for pleasure, and w h o can claim that what pleases one m a n must necessarily please another?
