This is a great story about an idea that began in the dark of the pandemic and then grew into something unique: "Our task: to read from start to finish, without stopping. I had learned of such an idea from Alan, who shared stories of his friend Gardner reading Paradise Lost in one sitting with his university class. Gardner writes that reading Milton's work in such a way is to have 'the experience.'"
