Literature is consumed for its own purpose and does not have to serve for any purpose. It is for pleasure, spiritual edification, broadening of knowledge, or may be just to pass time, without anyone forcing us to read them. I feel sympathetic to children who are forced to read literature in there part of curriculum. It is impossible to read serious novels, poetry, essays, and biographies, if we are not convinced that they largely enlarge our minds and refine our sprits, make us more sensitive and understanding towards our fellow human being.
