Who is the instigator of the action in this combination?
I don’t like his book reading.
May mean:
1) I don’t like the way he reads books. (The instigator is HE)
or
2) I don’t like the way his book reads. (The instigator is the book) (though it’s not realistic, I know)
Do you agree that “his book reading” may be interpreted as there are two instigators as I illustrated?
