READIN

Jeremy's journal

At first I didn't quite know what I would do with the book, other than read it over and over again. My distrust of history then was still strong, and I wanted to concentrate on the story for its own sake, rather than on the manuscript's scientific, cultural, anthropological, or 'historical' value. I was drawn to the author himself.

🦋 Recommendation

This morning I finished reading The Economist's Tale by Peter Griffiths. (Thanks D2 for the recommendation!) An excellent book and you ought to read it; I haven't really got anything to add to Daniel's review except to say this book is an extremely good pay-off in terms of how much pleasure, sorrow and enlightenment you will get out of reading it, versus how much effort is involved.

Update: And here is a link to Griffiths' home page.
