Flann Obrien(Joyce had competition)  The Complete Novels 
                                                    wellshit    this may be a book thats not returned
he may have to rescue it from the Demise of the Montecito Libraryfrom disuse abuse  from illiteracy  Read me a book Mommie isnt the same as petulant adolts bragging that they read yet another book this weekeveryone marveling Where did you find the time(they listened to an audio book   it aint one an the same)

libraries  Bradburys colleges  are on their way out  theyre no longer revered repositories public spaces(bathrooms to be sure places to loiter until the shelters open again) brain trusts historians harbingers  they are sapped by the internet  an anonymous insatiable fuckin vampire that if it cant find news it makes it up and doesnt worry the difference between them

he just had a conversation with two guys in the gym sauna about the demise of Radioshack and outhouses and Sears Roebuck and Company catalogsthe last pages used were womens bras underwear and lingerie  and while he didnt say he wondered if books didnt risk the same fate  computer users defecating and wiping their ass with their pages for two reasons  there were unlimited pages of the same book in light  and Who Reads Books
                                                                the printed word effaced by talking heads(theres certainly an art to telling storiesreading them) 140-characters eradicating tens of thousands of thoughtfully-created words  ---  B O R I N G  ---  Who has time to read?
 
                                            he hated trulyhated that question
You make time to read                        
maybe the question ought to be  Who has the attention-span?

                                             as society is buffeted by the insatiable desire for immediacyNOW and impatience  feveringNOW!  children balling crying because theyre not getting what they want  but children have an excuse  theyre ignorant  theres nothing worse than an ignorant adolt


he decided
 
         he was rescuing The Complete Novels  printed by Everymans Library(he really like the intention the idealism)
