'it highlights the pleasure of reading' is the definition.
I don't know anything about this answer so I can't judge whether this works.

'retirement' is the wordplay.
I cannot quite see how this works, but
'retirement' could be 'bed' and 'bed' is found in the answer.
The remaining letters 'sidelamp' is a valid word which might be clued in a way I don't understand.
This may be the basis of the clue (or it may be nonsense).

'in' acts as a link.
