Why Did the Novel-Reading Man Disappear?

β€œBut I really thought young men despised novels amazingly.”
β€œIt may well suggest amazement if they do β€” for they read nearly as many as women.”

in retrospect maybe it was a mistake to tell young people that reading, the arts, the humanities weren’t important and that β€œlearning to code” was sufficient for a good life.
