“Enjoyed listening to the audio book of GIRL, WOMAN, OTHER @BernardineEvari especially when Carole chooses her favourite number 1729, the smallest number = sum of two cubes in two different ways 1^3+12^3 and 9^3+10^3 (although I think the narrator said 2 rather than 12 cubed) | Enjoyed listening to the audio book of GIRL, WOMAN, OTHER @BernardineEvari especially when Carole chooses her favourite number 1729, the smallest number = sum of two cubes in two different ways 1^3^3 and 9^3^3 (although I think the narrator said 2 rather than 12 cubed) | Post election Saturday night with a book bliss. And my first recommendation in a long time. The brilliance of ‘Girl, Woman, Other’ tempted me to read @BernardineEvari earlier work. This one is confirming my view that she is one of our most compelling contemporary writers. | Second book is already an early favorite. Easy to see why it won all the awards—fascinating characters with different voices. | This is a great book. | Three fiction books that have given me a wonderful mental escape: The Dutch House, Ann Patchett Writers & Lovers, Lily King (couldn't put it down) Girl, Women, Other, Bernadine Evaristo Any recommendations”

Consider The Republic by Plato. Recommended by 13 sources.
“Plato stages an extended Socratic conversation that moves from concrete questions about justice into broad proposals about an ideal city, the structure of the soul, and what counts as reality and knowledge. Reading alternates brisk question-and-answer snippets with long, cumulative demonstrations that reward careful attention and annotation. Main value: a wealth of thought experiments for testing political and ethical intuitions. Main limitation: repetitive refutations, long policy sketches and dense metaphysical passages can feel abstruse and slow; patience and some philosophical background help.”
