First re-read after more than 10 years. I was thinking about the idea of non-modernist scifi lately, where science and technology were present without the values of enlightenment. Not many existing examples came to mind but I remember Dune being very close to that. Re-exploring to see how close it was.

Got the full-set of Will Durant's Story of Civilization!!

Made a 2026-reading-list, mostly want to focus on history and politics this year. Obviously way too many titles here but will hopefully read at least half of them.
Happy new year!
