The other day someone asked me -
I see that you have been reading this book
for the last five years.
Why haven't you finished it yet?
I said
Some books are condensed wine
that cost a fortune.
You don't gulp it down at one go
It has to be savoured sip by sip
over years and decades.
PEBBLES AND WAVES 
You didn’t tell him it’s not only you
reading the book. The book has been
reading you too:
year after year,
sip after sip
