Whatcha Readin'? (10/7-10/13)
Hi folks! What's on your stack of to-be-read books at the moment? Or what are you neck-deep into, or have enjoyed recently?
You're viewing a single thread.
As for me, I'm working on "Birnam Wood" by Eleanor Catton. i'm having a slow time getting into it, but i've heard it's good. likely won't get it finished in the next week as tomorrow i'm off to a zen retreat for a week, but it'll be waiting for me when I get back.
i've got a couple things specifically relating to veganism on order from my local library: "Veganism: Politics, Practice, and Theory" by Eva Haifa Giraud, and "The Vegan Studies Project: Food, Animals, and Gender in the Age of Terror" by Laura Wright.
i'm no academic but i am a nerd, and am hoping that these so-called foundational texts in vegan studies will help me have a better theoretical and actionable framework within which to work. speaking of which, i also have on order "Striking at the Roots: A Practical Guide to Animal Activism" by Mark Hawthorne. this one i have purchased so that i can have it as a reference for actual praxis.
have any of you read any of these and have any thoughts, or recommendations?
