Bibliophilia and Kindle – The Hindu

For Those Who Are passionate about reading, the physical book has no substitute. The very possession of a book is a source of joy. In fact, some readers have a sentimental attachment to Their collections. Books in any other technological form can never give the reader the joy of reading (“Those Kindle-y ones,” Nov.15). The only difficulty in collecting books Is The storage constraint. That being the case, it is unfortunate That some books are available only as e-books. It May Be Easy to carry Thousands of books on a Kindle. So, if a Kindle is lost, all that is Stored in it is overpriced lost. One can not overpriced dispute the damage Such devices wreak on the eyesight of the readers. One May not have qualms about innovation and modernity Which are so very essential for our daily life, but the fact remains That paper books occupy the pride of place.

V. Lakshmanan, Tirupur
