The publishers in question was Dalkey Archive, who mainly reprint books that they feel need to still be in print and read. A lot of books in translation.

Prompts
-Give me your own definition of reading or use mine: Reading is the act of interpretation of symbols that systematically put together in a certain sequence, allow the reader to extract meaning from them in an active form of creation that can develop into complex narratives.
-Given your chosen definition, are reading and interpretation the same thing? If not, In what do they differ?
-Are there any practices that you consider reading but that would fit that or other definitions of reading?
-Is there an ideal reading experience for you? What is it? Is there a book that represents it?
-If there is such thing as an ideal reading experience, it follows that there is a scale of value to reading. What is at the bottom?
-Is there a book on that bottom that you love or enjoyed as much as those on the top?
-Is reading as the art of associating symbols and creating meaning out of them, a predecessor of language, or does it come after as a consequence of those languages?
-Is everything that can be read/with meaning a language?
-Mention a few languages that defy the conventional conception of what a language is. Could a book be written in any of those languages?
-If you could boundlessly read/understand the meaning in one of those languages. Which one would it be? Why?

My novel "Three Dreams In The Key Of G" explicitly examines how we acquire language as children and how we are only taught to write long after we have mastered words and know their meanings as a retrospective act.
