Description
Writing about books is pure joy for me. Little in life can match the experience of falling into a good book. The private space that the author and the reader occupy can be delicate and powerful. The totemic power of books is fading in our world, but that is all the more reason to celebrate the power that they retain. I come to praise books, not to bury them. But taking on the task of recommending ten books for American judges to read is at once delightful, and deranged. How can one resist the opportunity to pontificate on what others should read, especially when those others occupy judicial office? When it comes to telling judges what they should read, the timorous should stay at home. (I, however, am still here.)
