A bit of light reading


The summer is coming to an end and I suppose in a sense that it has been productive as I had the chance to do something other than think about about work. One of the best things was having the time and energy to do some reading. Usually, during the winter I don’t have the time or appetite for literature. Anyway, I have read over the last few months;

Freakonomics by Steven D. Levitt & Stephen J. Dubner

The World is Flat by Thomas L. Friedman

Little Children by Tom Perrotta


War Reporting for Cowards by Chris Ayres


Stand on Zanzibar by John Brunner


Radical Chic, Mau Mauing the Flak Catchers by Tom Wolfe


The Handmaid’s Tale by Margaret Atwood

Samurai Williams by Giles Milton

Bloody Foreigners by Robert Winder

Tourism by Nirpal Singh Dhaliwal

Going to Wars by Max Hastings

Breakfast at Tiffany’s by Truman Capote

The Writer and the World - Essays by V.S. Naipul
