This is a compendium of essays that Robert Coles wrote while and after teaching at Harvard. He is both a child psychiatrist and a professor of Social Ethics, and in this latter role he has had many discussions with college students regarding their reading and its impact on their own ethical thought. It illustrates how reading the classics can influence people's thinking about themselves, their families, the decisions they may have to make, their opinions of others - in short, the lessons fiction can impart to us all. Lovely writing and thoughtfulness.

I've been reading this for quite a while, an essay here and there as I go. It is one of those books that bears rereading, as much as the classic texts it cites.
