Query: A two-time read

I find that I have to read Hofstadter at least twice. The first time is for the pleasure of the language and the elegance of the book itself. Certainly in "Marot" this was the case; more so than with GEB where the physical construction of the book was less important. That first read of "Loop" brought a smile at the familiar tropes of typesetting that Hofstadter uses to inform the reader that he is really serious about each word, even when that word seems to lilt and jump off the page.The next read is slower and more contemplative, following Hofstadter as he investigates "thought" while understanding his own thoughts. This is the most fun of all, because Hofstadter's brain is a great place to visit and he is unstinting in allowing us a window into it.I ordered this book when I first learned about it in 2006 and endured several delays and promises that it is on the way. I am sure that the delays were because Hofstadter did not find the book to be just quite right yet. It is now.
