Synopsis of Uma história da leitura
En un instante mágico de la infancia, la página de un libro, esa cadena de cifras confusas y ajenas, se estremeció para cobrar significado. Las palabras te hablaron, revelaron sus secretos; en ese momento, se abrieron universos enteros. Te convertiste, irrevocablemente, en lector. El destacado ensayista Alberto Manguel parte de este momento esencial para explorar la conversación de 6000 años entre las palabras y ese mago sin el cual el libro sería un objeto sin vida: el lector. Manguel se detiene en la lectura como seducción, como rebelión, como obsesión, y continúa trazando la historia nunca antes contada del progreso del lector desde la tablilla de arcilla hasta el rollo, el códice hasta el CD-ROM.
