@selfstoragegp @moseskagan @rhunterh Lately I’ve enjoyed The Story of Sushi by Trevor Corson and Hungry by Jeff Gordinier (about Rene Redzepi), both food related, and over the summer I read Rise and Fall of the Third Reich, which helped me understand WWII a lot more. It’s not dry at all, very crisp writing.

Rereading the best work of fiction about real estate development ever written: Martin Dressler: The Tale of an American Dreamer, by Steven Millhauser. Also one of the great NYC novels. This passage reminded me of @iononrecourse. https://t.co/aXH45wZ6AL
