“She travelled all over the world while sitting in her little room in an English village.”
-Roald Dahl, Matilda

One of the best things about books is that they have that inimitable quality of being the world’s only real flying carpets. They can take you wherever you wish, whenever you wish, at whatever cost you wish. But books, belying their ultimate accomplishment of pleasure, are written with an initial purpose of communication. In the joy of imagination this original drive is often forgotten.
The original drive is what makes books so powerful of a legacy in our everyday world, and this book is a tribute to the legacy our generation has inherited. The messages of the great works through the ages have been freshly viewed, analyzed, and applied with the youthful perspective of a seventeen-year-old. The pages of Echoing Reality will always be open for all seeking a cup of good literary cheer and youthful wisdom.
