     The Big Read is a program of the National Endowment for 
     the Arts designed to revitalize the role of literary reading 
     in American popular culture. Reading at Risk: A Survey of
     Literary Reading in America
, a 2004 NEA report, identified
     a critical decline in reading for pleasure among American
     adults. The Big Read addresses this issue by bringing
     communities together to read, discuss, and celebrate 
     books and writers from American and world
     literature.           

     A great book combines enlightenment with enchantment.
     It awakens our imagination and enlarges our humanity. It
     can even offer harrowing insights that somehow console
     and comfort us. Whether you’re a regular reader already or
     making up for lost time, thank you for joining The Big Read.
