Summary: The author has been reading books since when she was young because her families had alot of book collections. among the Latins America, people who can read and afford to buy books are very few. It is not easy to purchase a reading material during theearlier generations of the Latinos. The author has a strong bonding with her mother and her daughther by just writing journals to each other. Life without reading i just like being imprisoned to the author. In other incident, the author's uncle, President of Chile, Salvador Allende implement his policy of getting his people to read by paying just a little of money to get a reading material which is"Quimantu". However, it doensn;t last for very long, his uncle was being assasinated by the military. In the present, 50 percent of the Latinos still cannot read or write.
Opinion: In my opinion, Reading is good way to gain knowledge. With a good knowledge, we will be a better person and we are able to boost up the economy fo the country. However, sometimes I can;t really take readings such as novel. I would rather watch movies to relax. there are too many words and it makes my brain hurts. Reading news or scientific materials is very improtant because we need to know what is going on in this world. Science will be the one that will determined our future of the country instead of novel. I have no idea, how the author can;t live without reading novel. Being Imprisoned without reading? I can live without readig novel since I am a scientific person with a mathematical mentality.
