@xandersherry Masha Gessen basically called it in her biography of Putin. He had deep kelptomania for things, he apparently loved to take things unimpeded. Great read. The Man Without a Face: The Unlikely Rise of Vladimir Putin https://t.co/rm6p0ve8NI

6. Ties by Domenico Starnone, Translated by Jhumpa Lahiri. This is a tour de force in terms of narrative. Italian authors have this incredible gift of visceral narration that just punches you in the gut. I loved this book https://t.co/7WB5niCMZV

If I ever get to the seniority where I can take a 2 month sabbatical at work, I want to go to Paris and learn French Patisserie at Ferrandi. I actually dreamed about making croissants last night

4. The Wager by David Grann - easily one of the best books I’ve read so far. Such an incredibly gripping read https://t.co/GAaaMjj8Rx
