... because it is not just about reading books but the physical pleasure and inner comfort that gives them in the hands
In "The Queen of the South," Arturo Pérez-Reverte explores the profound connection people have with books beyond their text. The act of reading transforms into a sensory experience, where the physicality of holding a book contributes to an individual's emotional well-being. This perspective highlights how books serve not only as sources of knowledge but also as objects that provide comfort and pleasure in their tactile presence.
This deeper appreciation for books encourages readers to value them as more than mere pages filled with words. The enjoyment derived from their weight and texture enhances the overall reading experience, allowing readers to find solace and a sense of belonging through literature. This relationship with books reflects a timeless bond that enriches our lives in ways that transcend simple reading.
