Currently Reading

A Pattern Language by Christopher Alexander

Reading slowly, one pattern at a time. Changes how I see space.

The Phenomenon of Man by Pierre Teilhard de Chardin

Dense and strange and occasionally luminous.

Read

The Brothers Karamazov by Fyodor Dostoevsky (1880)

Read three times now. Each reading is a different book.

★★★★★
Dune by Frank Herbert (1965)

Not really a sci-fi novel. A meditation on ecology, religion, and power.

★★★★★
The War of Art by Steven Pressfield (2002)

Short and essential. Read it in an afternoon when stuck.

★★★★☆
