Truly bowled over by how much I liked this book, by Gabrielle Zevin. I've never been much of a gamer, so consider this an endorsement for those who might think they won't "get it." What a wonderful reading experience this was.      fuente

From Nationalism to Universalism
Israel Kleiner - 2000-07-05
Calificación de Goodreads
Explore the history of Ukrainian-Jewish relations through the eyes of the eminent Zionist leader, Vladimir (Ze'sev) Jabotinsky in "From Nationalism to Universalism" by Israel Kleiner. Jabotinsky's writings on the Ukrainian question and his relations with Ukrainian politicians have not been extensively studied, but his views provide an insightful perspective on the crisis developing in the Russian Empire as a result of the unrelenting policy of official Russification. "From Nationalism to Universalism" shows Jabotinsky as a coherent thinker with a fundamental principle of mutual respect between nations that provides a sound basis for the development of relations among Ukrainians and Jews.

@JayCueAnimal The Jewish War Front, his last book, has great sections on the rights of minority populations after the post-WWI attempts to settle those questions. Israel Kleiner's From Nationalism to Universalism: Vladimir Ze'ev Jabotinsky and the Ukrainian Question is great on nationalism.      fuente

S. Morgenstern's Classic Tale of True Love and High Adventure
William Goldman - 2003-07-15 (publicado por primera vez en 1973)
Calificación de Goodreads
La bella Buttercup jura amor eterno a Westley, que parte en busca de furtuna y es asesinado por unos piratas. La doncella, obligada, se promete al príncipe Humperdinck de Florin, un bellaco al cual sólo le interesa la caza. El mejor esgrimista, el hombre más inteligente y el más fuerte del mundo son contratados por los enemigos de Florin para raptar a Buttercup. En la huida, sufren la incansable persecución de un hombre enmascarado que los retará uno a uno en su propio terreno. En La Princesa Prometida, William Goldman ha reunido todos los elementos clásicos de los grandes relatos, ambientados en un mundo de fantasía medieval, imprimiéndoles su fino sentido del humor. Sus personajes representan a todos los héroes y villanos de nuestros cuentos de infancia y rinden un brillante homenaje a la novela de aventuras.

Confessions of Punk Rock's Most Infamous Anarchist Sellout
Laura Jane Grace - 2016-11-15 (publicado por primera vez en 2015)
Calificación de Goodreads
This searing memoir tells the intimate story of a punk rocker's search for identity and true self. With Against Me!, this provocative transgender advocate achieved punk greatness, but also faced legal woes and fan backlash. This is not your typical music memoir - it's an inside look at the remarkable story of a modern punk icon.

Things the Grandchildren Should Know
Mark Oliver Everett - 2007-11-01
Calificación de Goodreads
Discover the inspiring memoir of an acclaimed indie rocker who survived the deaths of his entire family and turned tragedy into critically acclaimed music. Mark Oliver Everett's upbringing was ridiculous, sometimes tragic, and always unsteady, but his story is full of hope, humor, and wry wisdom.
