On the cover:
BECAUSE WHEN I READ,
I DON’T REALLY READ;
I POP A BEAUTIFUL SENTENCE
INTO MY MOUTH AND SUCK IT LIKE A FRUIT DROP,
OR I SIP IT LIKE A LIQUEUR UNTIL THE THOUGHT DISSOLVES IN ME LIKE ALCOHOL,
INFUSING BRAIN AND HEART AND COURSING ON THROUGH THE VEINS TO THE ROOT OF EACH BLOOD VESSEL.

- Bohumil Hrabal (1914 -1997). Too Loud a Solitude
