The power of geography which I believe is an earlier book is also an excellent read I’ve yet to read The Future of Geography but I’ve a birthday coming up in a couple of months so I’ll wait and see.
Down and Out in Paris and London is similar in Orwell’s reflection of the conditions of the working class, also a good read. I’ve just finished The Vegetarian It’s is a three-part novel set in modern-day Seoul and tells the story of Yeong-hye, a part-time graphic artist and home-maker, whose decision to stop eating meat after a bloody nightmare about human cruelty leads to devastating consequences in her personal and familial life. I found it a struggle to finish this depressing read. It tells of a slow decline into mental illness and institutionalisation, not the holiday read I was expecting.
@Ducbird @El Toro Would it be possible to somehow merge this thread here with another with the same name: https://www.ducatiforum.co.uk/threads/what-are-you-reading.101701/ Many thanks.
I'm reading Clifford D. Simak's 'A Heritage of Stars'. Fantasy adventure escapism, basically. Like most of what Simak wrote, there are horses and raccoons in it. And certain words. Not tiresome, though, like Thomas Covenant, who clenches so frequently eventually so do you.
