I like to feel a book in my hands. I have been sending all my books to a bookbinding company, and they look beautiful in different colours. We were told to love our books, magazines and newspapers, and our books always carry paper covers to conserve them. We had occasional inspections of our textbooks . Now there is propaganda made by the governments to hate newspapers and journalists and to hate scientific books; religious fundamentalism is taking over our society; it is like a regression
I have a Kindle, but I only use it on rare occasions. All my books have three or four markers made out of ribbons of different colours. I am an atheist, but I have Bibles from different translations and different versions, atheist read more about the bible than theists. I grew up in a small town, but the main entertainment of the young people was the town library. Long-distance education is going to be the future of pedagogy, and many universities are implementing that system
With bookshops long gone, bar one, where I am, there is no joy for me in going to town. My childhood and youth was thrilled by bookshops, especially old used book shops, where one could browse for as long as one wanted.
I will never have an e-reader.
Children today do not know the joy I had in books, and comics. Every Saturday my dad and I would go browsing the bookshops. I would also get an educational children’s magazine called World of Wonder, and also a funny comic. World of Wonder taught me the basics of history, my favourite subject, and I still have the collection. It came with wall charts too on exploration, science and ancient civilisations.
