This was fantastic, for its breadth, insight and gorgeous color reproductions. It's going on my ten-best list for this year.
Currently reading:
- A Mad Catastrophe: The Outbreak of World War I and the Collapse of the Habsburg Empire by Geoffrey Wawro which is interesting and more readable than this type of work sometimes is.
- Flux by Jinwoo Chong, a time travel novel published earlier this month. It got stellar reviews, but the jury's still out for me and I'm halfway through.
