  • How to suppress women's writing (Joanna Russ). Demonstates the uses of rhetoric -- both against a group and by that group to fight back. Written 38 years ago and still exceptionally relevant. An exceptionally useful prequel to any higher education, as Russ shines a bright light on the bullshit industry.

  • The Periodic Table (Primo Levi). A chemist, inspired by 21 elements, meditates on life and science. A prisoner of Auschwitz ponders how he and how his torturers survived. Swerving between memoir and fiction, humanities and science.

  • Beloved (Toni Morrison). Magical realism demonstrates how chattel slavery destroys humanity, and how some people can survive even so.
