Illustration: On a commuter train, a young adult is absorbed in a small paperback held open toward their face. Their eyes angle down into the book, and one fingertip lifts the corner of a page ready to turn it. Only the plain outside cover and page edges face the viewer. A cloth book bag rests on their knees.
