Status Updates From How to Read Literature Like...

So far it feels like catching a strange literary virus in the best way. It infects your perspective, dismantles the innocence of reading and rewires your brain to decode symbols, archetypes, and patterns. You will never look at a simple rainstorm, a shared meal, a cauldron or even a skyscraper in fiction the same way again. Now I start noticing a retelling of the old stories in a new way.
