Thoughts on production, alienation, and ideology
These are posts about books from the blog Base and Superstructure. Occasionally I’ll read a book worth talking about, and write some thoughts on it. These cover a wide range of topics from the blog.
We’re headed for another Midwestern winter, and it’s time for yet another edition of the reading list! Even though the baseball season has been done for a week or so, I included a couple of (final?) baseball books. Along with it, we’ve got some politics and sci-fi.
Enjoy! And let me know what you’ve been reading lately.
Now that we’re fully into the fall and the postseason is going, let’s look at yet more baseball for this month’s reading list! For this month, I’m pairing the baseball with some politics and a TV show.
Hope you enjoy, and let me know what you’re reading!
So, I recently read W. E. B. Du Bois’s famous 1935 history of the Civil War era, Black Reconstruction in America. Like most leftists, I’ve read a million excerpts from the book over the years. Not to mention many other Du Bois texts – Dusk of Dawn is a personal favorite. But I hadn’t read Black Reconstruction until now. Let’s say a word or two about it.
As we move into the fall, let’s move on to some fiction! And, of course, a bit more baseball, since there’s still more baseball to be played. I hope you enjoy this month’s list. And, as always, let me know what you’ve been reading!
So, we have one more reading list for the hot months! For this one, I’ve mixed in a couple of TV shows. Along with that, I’ve mixed in a novel, a non-fiction work, and a couple of books on baseball stats. I have to admit, I’ve enjoyed revisiting the baseball stats literature. You might see more of these books coming in the next months.
Enjoy, and let me know what you’ve been reading!
