The Atlantic October 2022

An Ode to Being Read To
Bedtime stories aren’t just for children.

By James Parker

"When I’m listening to an audiobook, I’m being entertained like a tired ploughman. I’m being lulled, bardically lulled, like a drunken baron at a long feast table, pork grease shining on my chin. I’m being quieted like a child. I’m being spellbound like a face caught in firelight."

and more
