Choice of speaker 'was a hil- arious piece of Miscasting. I think I can state, ,not Proadiy, but with little fear of contradic- tion, that my personal reading habits are the most atrocious in Canada, maybe the world. Thirty-five years ago, my mother was saying anxiously, "Billy Smiley, you'll be blind before you're 15 if you don't stop reading in dark cornersi" Well, I ain't blind yet, and I'm still reading in dark cor- ners. Not to mention bright corners, on trains, planes and ships, in bathrooms, libraries and restaurants, before break- fast and after going to bed, walking to work or watching television.

The real book fiend, lost beyond recall, never reads any- thing remotely connected with real life, as it's being lived. He's a pure escapist. If he lives on the prairies, he reads about the sea, or mountain climbing. If he lives in a fishing villa', a, he reads westerns. If he's a shy boy, he reads about bold men. If he's a detective, he reads love stories. If he's a politician, he reads about detectives. If he's making history, he reads romance. If he's in the middle of a love affair, he reads war novels.
