Why Classics Feel Like Marathons Now

Published 15 hours ago
Description

Screens have rewired our brains for instant gratification, making deep reading feel like a marathon. Our attention spans? Shrinking. Our reading? Shallow. We’re drowning in digital noise, yet classics like Dickens or Austen demand patience and mental gymnastics we’ve lost. But it’s not too late—start slow, pick books that still resonate, or dive into audiobooks narrated by pros. The goal? Reconnect with literature’s power to move us, challenge us, and delight us—even if it takes a little extra effort to get back in the saddle.
