I agree that reading is the way that we can open up our own minds and empathies for others whose way of being may be different from our own. I know that I am a very different person than I would have been had I never picked up a book, and I can't imagine what life would be like without the ability to enter into the lives of those diverse characters. And yet I am reliably told that there are intellectually incurious people who never read books...
