The Left Hand of Darkness
Ursula K. Le Guin
I can’t believe it took me 36 years to start it. Makes me want to get deeper into the fantasy genre in the same way reading Left Hand of Darkness opened up sci fi for me. https://t.co/UxsUbFc4FR

Country Music: An Illustrated History
Dayton Duncan
@Von_Hertzog I love both of those. I know the Ken Burns Country Music is really long, but even if you have little interest in the genre, it’s an amazing watch

Cosmopolitanism: Ethics in a World of Strangers
Kwame Anthony Appiah
Cosmopolitanism by Kwame Anthony Appiah is worth reading for everyone. It says roughly that it is as wrong to assume that all truths are valid (relativism) as it is to assume that one truth is exclusively valid (nationalism/fundamentalism). We meet each other in the weird middle. https://t.co/4V9NrRsxxw

Courting the Wild Twin
Martin Shaw
Embarrassed that my first proper read of the year was finished on the last day of April, and yet, it was just what I needed. If you’re into myth, his book “Courting The Wild Twin” has been given away many times from my library. I love Martin Shaw. https://t.co/fHGKkeRWDS
