This is great. Literature must be part of an ongoing dialogue with the authors, ourselves and others. To re-read a book after many years is to understand a friend (the author) in a more complete way and a chance to speak with out younger self. Looking at old photographs does some of this but not nearly as much as re-reading a bood or re-viewing a film.
