What Is Reading For?

"Reading could have a rich and interesting future, because it does have a rich and interesting past. But if no one remembers that past, it may not mean much to the future." This succinct and thoughtful essay is the text of a talk commissioned for a symposium entitled The Future of Reading which was held at RIT in June 2010. Written and designed by Robert Bringhurst, the first edition of this book was letterpress printed in 2011, and reprinted in 2012 and 2014. This edition was digitally printed by Seaber Turner Associates on Cougar Opaque Natural Vellum paper. The cover was letterpress printed by Richard Kegler on Fabriano Vice Versa paper.
