George Will's latest is a good one. And I really like the Eric Hoffer quote at the start:
“It is remarkable by how much a pinch of malice enhances the penetrating power of an idea or an opinion. Our ears, it seems, are wonderfully attuned to sneers and evil reports about our fellow men.”
A nice review of Jake Meador's new book In Search of the Common Good. Meador says,
“A simple life of work and prayer in a particular place among a beloved people is all that God’s people need aspire to, and when we aspire to something beyond this hidden fidelity, it doesn’t take long for things to go sideways.”
Jill Lapore is a historian I would like to read.
Here's a review of her latest book,
This America.
