@bentarnoff I am not a big sci fi person but I thought Adam Roberts, The Thing Itself was superb.

@raf_walk Seeing students at Covid-delayed graduation when they have been out in the world for a year but still remember your class is awesome. Also re-reading Gillian Rose’s Love’s Work.

@egabbert Most recently The Book of Form and Emptiness by Ruth Ozeki did this for me.

@GrubStreetWomen I doubt this is exactly what you are looking for but people should read Villiers de l'Isle-Adam, Tomorrow's Eve more because it is completely bonkers and amazing.

@n_hold If you are doing novels Ling Ma’s Severance is a great novel about work and the end of work. Also zombies.

I was so absorbed by Brit Bennett, The Vanishing Half. Also it’s so great to read a book that was just gripping that I’m not teaching.
