"Reading and writing become integral processes that continue to evolve one`s lifestyle, to the extent that they become persistent habits born out of occupation," said V. Musafar Ahammed, while addressing the gathering at the 7th edition of Kerala Literature Festival. N. E. Sudheer initiated the 13th session by sharing a difference of opinion on the session title. He expressed his passion for reading by quoting G. R. R Martin: "A reader lives a thousand lives before he dies. The man who never reads, lives only one." He also discussed Reading in terms of electronic means such as Google books, while emphasizing on the term `Techno Feudalism`. Furthermore, he stated that there are none who oppose reading. He also commented on the perspective of readers, using Mahatma Gandhi and Godse as examples. Rereading old books emerged as the highlight of the discussion. The importance of knowing history for reading and understanding books, including classics, was the main argument put forward by E. Santhosh Kumar. V. Musafar Ahammed, apart from reciting his own poem, "Marikkukayalle Onnu Marichhunokkam," shared insights from revisiting the works of Ibrahim al-Laqqani and "Hridayathinte Vathayanangal" during the Covid pandemic. The speakers wrapped up the session by reflecting on the effects of rereading influential books like War and Peace, Tolstoy Together: 85 Days of War and Peace with Yiyun Li, and A Dictator Calls. They expressed a collective sentiment of regret about the possibility of not being able to continue their reading journeys in the distant future, long after they have departed from the world.
