A monumental book about the history of book production,and the influence of reading in social history and education,from the ancient Greeks and Romans to today.Irene Vallejo conveys the historical information of the past to our daily activities of today in a way that the reading becomes literary and entertaining!Personal anecdotes are fun, they reduce the dryness of historical narrative and add fluidity to the reading .I won’t jump to the void from the top of a wall,but when my time comes I want to take Irene Vallejo’s book with me… As a book collector,I admire the immense reading spectrum of Ms Vallejo
