In a truly engaging and accessible style, The Future of Reading looks at the very experience of reading. Rather than analysing or critiquing texts, it examines what happens to us when we read.

Exploring the concept of the phenomenal body as defined by Maurice Merleau-Ponty, this book illustrates how the arrangement of verse can inspire readers to engage with and address significant societal issues like race, climate change, and inequality. By emphasizing the interconnectedness of poetic expression and collective action, it highlights the transformative potential of literature in fostering awareness and prompting solutions to pressing global challenges.
