In the late 1990s, after living in China for more than a year, I still didn't understand very much or why the country operated as it did. Then, belatedly, I read Jonathan Spence's "The Search for Modern China." https://t.co/1b5inFA43V

Interested in history behind last week's violence in Northern Ireland? Read @praddenkeefe 's "Say Nothing." NI politics requires a voluminous glossary, but this book tells the human story through a murder mystery. @MaureenCorrigan @nprfreshair https://t.co/XoKaFF2Fwn

@mariaressa went from social media evangelist to disinformation target in just a few years. Her personal story is a cautionary tale and an inspiring example of defiance against dictators. I watched this play out over dinners and chats over the last 1/3 https://t.co/7RpmDHz8NI

@Eric_Weiner explains how his book, The Geography of Bliss, became a docu-series. I enjoyed the book tremendously when it came out and am looking forward to seeing the series. https://t.co/8hVbNsFi1U
