I Feel Bad About My Neck (Paperback, Large Print) - And Other Thoughts on Being a Woman
Ephron, Nora / Large Print Pr / 2008년 4월
평점 : 
따끈따끈한 킨들로 읽은 첫 책.
조금씩 아껴가며 읽었다. 피식피식 웃음이 나오는 nora ephron의 수다.
그녀가 세상에 없다는게 문득 많이 아쉽다.

인상깊은 구절.
<Blind as a Bat> 중에서.
..Reading is one of the main things I do. Reading is everything. Reading makes me feel I've accomplished something, learned something, become a better person. Reading makes me smarter. Reading gives me something to talk about later on. Reading is the unbelievably healthy way my attention deficit disorder medicates itself. Reading is escape, and the opposite of escape; it's a way to make contact with reality after a day of making things up, and it's a way of making contact with someone else's imagination after a day that's all too real. Reading is grist. Reading is bliss.
