Favourite books? Oh god, there are so many of them…Lord of the Rings and
Frank Herbert's Dune definitely, I read those way back, when I was
17 something. Eric Hoffer's The True Believer, a thorough and insightful study
of the fanatical mind and mass movements. And of course, I must not forget
Washington Irvings The Sketch Book of Geoffrey Crayon, excellent. Pride and
Prejudice is also a must-read.
Now I'm reading Hannah Arendt's Eichmann In Jerusalen and The Origins of
Totalitarianism, both already legendary in their respective fields. Highly
recommended.
