i would, but it transcends the meaning/unmeaning dichotomy.

How do you mean?
Why can no one give me a straight answer on this?
My parents don't read, so I have no idea whether I am correctly interpreting the novels that I do.
I grew up in the European equivalent of a shanty town so no one I know reads. My teachers didn't even read, I'm guessing, considering they hadn't a clue what they were doing.

Is there or is there not a book of this nature? I will continue reading either way, but I would prefer to have a different method of interpretation.

there are probably bloom books on criticism and interpretation of literature. Harold Bloom.

Thank you.

I've asked this before and the answer I got was The Well-educated Mind by Susan Wise Bauer

Waking Up by Sam Harris explains how to understand reality and all its contents at the most fundamental level possible by human beings. So that obviously includes novels.

'How to read a book' by Adler is pretty good, even if it doesn't focus on book interpretation exactly.
Learning how to 'properly' interpret a book is mostly an acquired skill, something you learn over time. It's not an exact science, either, most books support several different (contradictory) interpretations.

Nice. Thank you.

Seriously? Start with the Greeks.

I have read various books on Greek philosophy and literature, but perhaps I need to spend more time on it.

What specific books can you recommend that I could order off amazon?
Please do not give me a graph with a hundred books on it, type out a smaller amount, if you are bothered. Books that are fundamental to the understanding of a novel.
