Wouldn't it be lovely?

Literary criticism generally becoming obsolete rather quickly, C.S. Lewis is in great part now remembered for his novels and apologetics. This book concerning criticism deserves to live on right alongside them, for the elegance of its writing and especially the beauty of the ideas. Lewis explores how one reads, how different kinds of people get different experiences out of reading, and how to judge--or not to judge--a book's merits. The hook: what if the quality of a book lies less in how it is <i>written</i>, and more in how it is <i>read</i>?
Discuss.
