>yfw the preface spoils the book

>> No.7117630

That's happened to me many times so I never read introductions unless they were written by the author and a part of the book itself.

You should be vaguely familiar with the plot already, if not know most of the details.

I mean, can you really spoil the Iliad for example? You must be culturally ignorant if you don't already know what happens.

The weirdest one is when the author spoils their own book, e.g. Heller in Catch-22. He literally tells you the entire ending,
