Synopsis | At first glance, reading is a simple action: all you have to do is turn the pages while your gaze deciphers the signs written on them. But reading is also a fantastic act: it allows you to discover other thoughts and experiences, to imagine other worlds. There is something about reading that feeds the passionate obsession of the reader; unraveling the words of books transforms life. In this brief essay that plays with narration and poetry, Luna Miguel tells us how the Reader reads during the summer. Ferociously advancing through books that she finishes in days, or taking weeks to read others, she discovers that there is a relationship between the desire to read and her coquetry. It is no longer about finding out why one reads and what it is for, but about heroically abandoning oneself to the act of reading itself and giving oneself over to excess as if it were an adventure. Wearing a pink bikini or topless under the sun, the Reader seems to give up the idea that one reads in the ascetic solitude of the mind. One reads with others, with lovers and friends; Reading requires, above all, the awakening of all the senses and their pleasures. |
