The Reader No. 23: Bringing Books to Life (Liverpool University Press - Reader) - Softcover

Most literary magazines focus on the craft of writing and cater to a highly select audience of writers, literary critics, and scholars of literature. In contrast, The Reader is a quarterly literary magazine aimed at the intelligent common reader. 

Volume 23, “Reading and Health,” includes a new story from renowned writer Ray Tallis, a discussion on how reading and writing poetry helps those suffering from depression, and an article by Philip Davis on the neurological effects of reading Shakespeare.
