Synopsis "Leer (in Spanish)"

"Hay quienes ven pasar personas delante de su ventana como si se tratara de un paisaje y hay quienes, a partir del examen detenido de esas personas, se percatan de que nada en la marcha de esos individuos es gratuito. También hay quienes pasan la vista por miles de páginas sin sentir ese compromiso, esa gracia que libera. Leen para acumular, para trepar. Otros, más bien pocos, disfrutan al leer personas, lugares, estadísticas, mapas, versos, ideas. Y van más allá son congruentes entre lo que leen y lo que hacen. Buscan la claridad, y si la encuentran, la transmiten. Para ellos Gabriel Zaid es un maestro de lectura. Este libro es un homenaje a ese lector." Fernando García Ramírez "A lo largo de su vida, Zaid ha ido escribiendo un libro sobre la lectura, cuyos textos se encontraban dispersos en sus diferentes obras. Leer hace aparecer ese libro largamente trabajado, que muestra de manera fresca y contundente la importancia política, económica y moral de la lectura." Daniel Goldin Some see people passing by their window as part of the landscape, while others who take an extended look see nothing gratuitous in their movements. There are also people who see thousands of pages without feeling that commitment or liberating grace. Instead, they read to accumulate. There are a few people who enjoy reading people, places, statistics, maps, verse, and ideas, and what they read is what they do. They seek out clarity, and if they find it, they share it. For those people, Gabriel Zaid is a master of reading.

No quede satisfecho con el servicio de «buscalibre.com» para este libro. Recibí un libro manchado en los laterales de las hojas de oxido y polvo, al parecer el libro no fue bien cuidado en el almacenamiento y estuvo expuesto a la intemperie.
