Do you think books will ever be completely obsolete?

And the world will transfer entirely to digital reading?

Digital information can be completely erased on a global scale in an eye blink given the right circumstances. If we had another Carrington Event like the one experienced in 1859, every piece of digital equipment, power stations, satellites, transformers….anything not specially shielded from an EMP that powerful would be fried, never to work again. Books would remain unaffected except by time.
