Undrowned: Black Feminist Lessons from Marine Mammals
Alexis Pauline Gumbs
@nickriggle It might be a bit far afield for your purposes, but I started re-reading *Undrowned: Black Feminist Lessons from Marine Mammals* by Alexis Pauline Gumbs and was considering recommending it to you because she plays around with voice in the book, and reflects on voice in the intro

Philosophy Illustrated
Helen de Cruz
We tried to pull out some of the core themes, and we tried to think about what a graphic novel might offer as a medium (drawing on Helen De Cruz's intro to Philosophy Illustrated). I don't want to say too much, though, as I worry about spoilers. But it is well worth a read!

The Narrative of Arthur Gordon Pym: Large Print
Edgar Allan Poe
@jneuf It's actually two Moby Dick albums, one album about Poe’s The Narrative of Arthur Gordon Pym of Nantucket, and one album about Hodgson's The Boats of the Glen Carrig. So all focused on whaling, but not all focused on Melville.

The Conspiracy Against the Human Race: A Contrivance of Horror
Thomas Ligotti
@RageoftheMage It's more pessimistic than nihilistic, but have you read Thomas Ligotti's The Conspiracy Against the Human Race?

The Concealed Art of the Soul: Theories of Self and Practices of Truth in Indian Ethics and Epistemology
Ganeri
@dsquintana @WiringTheBrain People have already offered a lot of suggestions, but no one mentioned Jonardon Ganeri. Maybe his “The Concealed Art of the Soul: Theories of Self and Practices of Truth in Indian Ethics and Epistemology”

The Original Buddhist Psychology: What the Abhidharma Tells Us about How We Think, Feel, and Experience Life
Beth Jacobs
@constancekassor I'm looking for something that students will find fun. I currently have Thích Nhất Hạnh, Understanding our mind, and Beth Jacobs, The Original Buddhist Psychology (a book on abhidharma). I think the Jacobs might seem too boring, so I'm looking to replace that with something fun
