I think this shows, to me, why I like Michael Dirda's book reviews for the Washington Post so much.
He understands the criticism ("mind" part, I guess) of literature, and can help me understand that side of things.
But he loves a good book, and can really communicate that "full body" sense of how wonderful reading can be, when you really lose yourself in a good book.
Gee, maybe I should tell him that I appreciate his work :-)
