The Wizard of the Kremlin by Giuliano da Empoli

I’ve categorised this book as ‘Fiction’ but I’m not really sure. The book is mostly a monologue delivered by Vladimir Putin’s (fictional) right hand man. If I learned that it was based on a true person, or even ghost written for one, I’d believe it. ...more

Hemingway wrote this short collection of vignettes during the very last years of his life. And because of that, they are the mature reflections of a great writer looking back at the beginning of his career as a young, married man living in Paris in t ...more

You've Been Pooping All Wrong by Trisha Pasricha

This a terrific, well-written, funny book about a subject no one talks about in polite company. But as pretty much all of us poop, fart, wipe our bums, etc., it deserves a wider audience. Some key tips: everyone needs more fibre in their diets (and p ...more

Very dark, very good - but also a plot that demands attention. A very bleak portrait of post-Soviet Russia.

An excellent, short, quirky introduction to the life and work of George Orwell. Made me want to read Orwell all over again.

The POUM by Andy Durgan
Rate this book

A short history of the POUM, the most important 'dissident communist' group that arose in the inter-war years, from a Trotskyist perspective. While decent enough account, it engages only with the head and not the heart. The disappearance, torture and ...more
