MAKE ME READ BOOKS!: OK, I know I’ve been promising more posting a lot lately, and it hasn’t been happening, for various reasons. I hope to post quite a bit today though. One thing I’ll be posting soon is a book list–stuff I’ve read that I’d strongly recommend to anyone interested by rock’n’roll conservatism, i.e. the political/philosophical worldview of this site.

What this list won’t include: foreign policy. You’ll notice that I very rarely write about that. You may have guessed that I don’t write about it because I don’t think I understand it well enough to spout off about it. Sure, I’ll occasionally do this, and obviously there are the Keston bulletins, which don’t really count as “foreign policy,” and obviously all the farm-dole/subsidies ‘n’ tariffs stuff has major foreign policy implications. But in general, The Rest Of The World is an area I stay out of on this site.

I want to change that. So I’m soliciting recommendations. Write up a description of the books you think I should read–including novels, travel narratives, epic poems, whatever you think would be helpful. Basically, write an ad for the things, telling me why I should read them. I can’t guarantee that I’ll get to every one, but I will a) post the recommendations I get, and b) try to read at least a good chunk of them. Send rec’s to [email protected], and do check out the email policy to your left. Muchisimas gracias, y’all.
