I said "only." And just for the record, I've read all of Hofstader's books, not just the popular/mainstream one.

EDIT: Ok, not all, just the ones in English. ;-)

And a further EDIT: all three of those books are about "Art" more or less. I can't see how someone who read those books can't read fiction. So I'm guessing you missed "only."

No, I didn't miss the "only". I don't read fiction anymore. No time. I pretty much want everything I read to be full of new knowledge for me.
