Attempted Relaxation

Here is a picture of the stack of books that I hope to read during my convalescence.  They are as follows:

• Lee Mcintyre, Post-Truth
• Colson Whitehead, The Underground Railroad
• Ron Stallworth, Black Klansman
• François Cusset, How the World Swung to the Right
• Mitch Prinstein, Popular: Finding Happiness and Success in a World That Cares Too Much about the Wrong Kinds of Relationships
• [the last ninety pages of] Hannah Arendt’s The Origins of Totalitarianism
