![]() Toni Morrison Toni Morrison (Photo by Deborah Feingold/Corbis via Getty Images) She’s beyond our compassing you read the book and fall in love: which is an incredible gain and an incredible suffering to endure in the contracted life of a read, but Tolstoy gives us that extra life. It contains the world in it, every mode, and it’s impossible to truly ever get a full perspective of Anna. Suffering through the loss of Desdemona, also, is still one of the seminal literary experiences I’ve had: it’s the first time, I can remember, of being truly devastated by death in a book. ![]() A bit obvious of a choice, maybe, but I love Shakespeare! I didn’t actually read Shakespeare (truly read, not just read a passage here or there to be able to wing a Socratic Seminar in class or whatever) until I graduated college, so I feel (and this haunt is incessant) an acute too-lateness, but Shakes definitely changed me: Shakespeare has taught me more than Life. ![]()
