In early 2002, Sara Nelson – editor, reporter, reviewer, mother, daughter, wife, and compulsive reader – set out to chronicle a year’s worth of reading, to explore how the world of books and words intermingled with children, marriage, friends, and the rest of the “real” world. She had a system all set up: fifty-two weeks, fifty-two books . . . and it all fell apart the first week. That’s when she discovered that books chose her as much as she chose them, and the rewards and frustrations they brought were nothing she could plan for: “In reading, as in life, even if you know what you’re doing, you really kind of don’t.” From Solzhenitsyn to Laura Zigman, Catherine M. to Captain Underpants, this is the captivating result. It is a personal memoir filled with wit, charm, insight, infectious enthusiasm-and observations on everything from Public Books (the ones we pretend we’re reading), lending trauma and the idiosyncrasies of sex scenes (“The mingling of bodies and emotions and fluids is one thing. But reading about it: now that’s personal”) to revenge books, hype, the stresses of recommendation (What does it mean when someone you like hates the book you love?), the odd reasons we pick up a book in the first place, and how to put it down if we don’t like it (“The literary equivalent of a bar mitzvah, the moment at which you look at yourself and announce: Today I am an adult.”). Throughout, So Many Books, So Little Time is pure delight-a work at once funny, wise, and rueful: enough to make a passionate reader out of anybody.

“The Teaching of English in Pakistan” appraises the quality of English Language Teaching at the tertiary level. The study researches five major colleges of Lahore and presents its findings on the quality of the syllabus, the teaching methodology and the examination system. It emphasizes the need for a change to a communicative task based approach while teaching compulsory English to Intermediate and Graduate students. The book stresses the need for training of English teachers as a prerequisite for improving the quality of the English Language Teaching programme in Pakistan. It identifies the training needs of college teachers by a determination of the background of the College English Teacher; the English language needs of college students, and the major problems of college students and English teachers which constrain the effective learning and teaching of English.
