Recommended Reads, 24th in a Quarterly Series

Ah, the comfort of a good book to read in silence...

Raisin in the Sun (Hansberry).  So Chicago.

A Call to Conscience: The Landmark Speeches of Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. (Carson).  Fascinating to digest both the words and the context behind them.

Things Fall Apart (Achebe).  Such a Nigerian classic.

Quiet: The Power of Introverts in a World That Can't Stop Talking (Cain).  Loved the research on how introverts and extroverts are wired.

The Evolution of God (Wright).  Cultural and political influences on how different people perceive the divine over time.

Five Billion Years of Solitude: The Search for Life Among the Stars (Billings).  If there's life elsewhere in the universe, is it even possible to connect with it?
