Maxime Decout, In Praise of the Bad Reader

The news will be a relief to many who still read (the Bible?) in shame or guilt !
Every reader has at some time worried about this when faced with a text: how to read well ? It is astonishing that no one wonders how to read badly. Yet it is far from obvious. It takes art, skill and cunning to practice truly inspired misreading. Once you accept this, you will stop making reading solely an experience of objective interpretation, of working with the text, of order, of patience, of concentration. Let your passions take over, let your attention wander, read sideways, skip pages. This is how you will transform what you read and reinvent it. Then you will agree: bad reading is often a great way to read!
