The Parts of 2666, Part 7

How you read a book
is sometimes
as important
as the book itself.

For instance,
the version of
2666
that I bought
for myself
was the book
split into
three volumes,
which helped me
to digest
its five sections,
to feel undaunted
by the challenge.

Later,
when I devoured
all Belano's short books,
it was in hindsight
only natural
to break it down
to smaller sizes.

This is how I would recommend it
to everyone,
although if you're one
to be impressed 
with bulk,
you can purchase it that way, too.

2666 is,
after all,
the gift that keeps on giving.
