Characteristics of a Good Reader
It appears that Osama Bin Laden writes poems. I learned this from a book title from Charlotte Mutsaers which refers to one of his poems. The world is full of surprises.
Another fact is that -- and these days with a renewed interest in the WWII -- Hitler was a persistent reader. His personal library contained about 16,000 volumes, and he read at least one book per night ... and he got very angry when Eva Braun indented to disturb him during this activity.
However, reading was not a goal on itself, but he read as a means to reassure his own ideas. Nothing new. He used literature to support his ideas -obviously in an environment where he could trust anyone... (else).
If that was Hitler, what should we learn from that? First of all that Hitler was as illiterate as Hanna in the novel of Bernard Schlink, the reader. As he does know how to read but he is not open for the content. He is looking for pictures that he can use to write his monologue. At least Hanna had an excuse that she followed the atrocies of the leader as she didn't really know.
The real reader however is someone who learns from what he reads and who is not chained by prejudgments. Reading opens the mind, free to explore a new world out there.
In the business world there is the concept of speed-reading. When I read literature I come across a complete opposite experience: if I don't slow down, I stumble upon the words and I do not understand a word.
Thorough reading requires slowing down. To leave the world of speed and decisiveness in order to connect to a world of imagination and possibilities. You have to let go of your own known-world and open up for the uncertain.
A good read (book) will influence you, may even change you.
This goes without saying didn't apply to Hitler; he wasn't open for change of his ideas. But a good reader is. And he will learn.
