Collection of Spades

 

I wrote this after going to the library to check out some children’s book. Frequently, I think children’s books are the best books. They are simple and clear- pure content and vision, stripped of all complexity and intellectualism.

Great Works for Adults tend to be complicated and fibrous, and when you do go through the trouble of digesting them, they rarely have the calorie content of books written for children.

Mark Twain vs. Hemingway…

To me, there is no contest as to which books speak to us most deeply and directly.
