from this essay : horacebianchon.substack.com/p/youre-not-...

a great read.
the text on the image reads "Also, sometimes, reading does not need to reorganize anything. Sometimes it is just fun and meaningful in a “spiritual” sense. A good novel might not change your models or update your priors, it might just offer immersion, rhythm, a brief escape from your own interior monologue. The enjoyment of language, the satisfaction of narrative structure, the comfort of sitting with someone else's imagination for a while, none of that needs to be justified through output. Not everything has to leave a mark to be worth the time. Some books are simply there to be lived in for a few hours or days, and that, too, is enough. by Horace Bianchon"
