Finished Judith Stein's Pivotal Decade this week. The epilogue was a real throwback to the zeitgeist of 2010.
Almost done with Old Gods, New Enigmas. I usually don't follow the book club because my pace of subjects is usually very different but I've had several Mike Davis books in the backlog that I wanted to turn to for a while.
I've had several books that I started as home reads a long time ago but only partially finished: Frederic Jameson's Postmodernism: The Cultural Logic of Late Capitalism and Karl Polanyi's The Great Transformation. After Old Gods I plan to finally finish them. I've been moving at a feverish pace since the start of August as a result of being significantly more sober than I have been since before the pandemic.
By sheer coincidence (I swear), the next work read in my backlog was David Cannadine's The Victorious Century, on the British Empire between 1800-1906. The one after that is The Decline of the British Aristocracy, also by Cannadine.
