Reading List #2

Putting together different things for paid subscribers, one feature will be varieties of reading lists. Texts I’ve found insightful or provocative.

I do not take any of these texts at face-value, and sometimes the most interesting texts are the ones you partially disagree with. So here are five texts I’ve found interesting.

Ellul’s Meaning Of The City
