A working father whose life no longer feels like his own discovers
the transforming powers of great (and downright terrible)
literature in this laugh-out-loud memoir. Andy Miller had a job he
quite liked, a family he loved and no time at all for reading. Or
so he kept telling himself. But, no matter how busy or tired he
was, something kept niggling at him. Books. Books he'd always
wanted to read. Books he'd said he'd read, when he hadn't. Books
that whispered the promise of escape from the 6.44 to London. And
so, with the turn of a page, began a year of reading that was to
transform Andy's life completely. This book is Andy's inspirational
and very funny account of his expedition through literature:
classic, cult and everything in-between. Crack the spine of your
unread 'Middlemarch', discover what 'The Da Vinci Code' and
'Moby-Dick' have in common (everything, surprisingly) and knock
yourself out with a new-found enthusiasm for Tolstoy, Douglas Adams
and 'The Epic of Gilgamesh'. 'The Year of Reading Dangerously' is a
reader's odyssey and it begins with opening this book...
