The October Country: Stories
Ray BradburyTimothy SandefurThis is a surprisingly good book. I often find short story anthologies disappointing. But most of the stories in here—done in homage to Ray Bradbury—are quite good, especially @joe_hill’s “By the Silver Water of Lake Champlain,” which is equal to anything Bradbury ever wrote. https://t.co/i8p8Cb0WqC

Pragmatism: A Reader
Louis MenandTimothy Sandefur@Dhruvpolitics @ObjStdInstitute I’m guessing you’d really enjoy one of my favorite books, “The Metaphysical Club” by Louis Menand. It’s a history of Pragmatism.
