A decade ago, Maryanne Wolf ’s Proust and the Squid unraveled the tangled story of how the human brain learned to read and how reading has transformed our thoughts and emotions as a species. Now that we are completely immersed in the Internet and our digital devices, our ways of processing written language have altered dramatically. Many of us are concerned about the resulting changes within ourselves, and worry about what they may mean for the next generation. Reader, Come Home describes Wolf ’s own concerns and hopes about what is happening to the brain as it adapts to digital mediums. Drawing on historical, literary, and scientific sources, Wolf uses down-to-earth examples and warm anecdotes to illuminate complex ideas that culminate in an intriguing proposal for a biliterate reading brain. Hopeful and clear-eyed, Reader, Come Home provides a much-needed perspective on the impact of technology on our brains and what it means for the future of humankind.
