Everyone was talking e-books at this year’s BookExpo. Well, almost everyone; a few subversives still linger: “I think the book is an amazing bit of technology,” Martin Amis asserted with his familiar, welterweight edge. “I like to write on my books, bend the pages, make little marks. I read with a pen in my hand, and I would like to be read with a pen in the reader’s hand. Reading a book is communing with the author. I think you need the page in your hand, the weight of it, as part of that process.” – Philadelphia Inquirer
