OT: Whatcha reading? Whatcha watching?

[JanG]

One of the nice things about retiring is the time to read more.

Recent fiction reading for me has been:

- Wandering Stars by Tommy Orange. I read There There and this is sort of a sequel or at least follows on from it.

- Act of Oblivion by Harris. Interesting historical fiction about the fate of the 'regicides' - the Roundheads who authorized the killing of Charles 1 and how two of them were pursued to the then colonies of New Haven and Massachusetts.

- Also by Harris - the first two books in the trilogy on Cicero.

- Currently reading Beyond Measure. It's an interesting history of metrology but really needed better editing to cut it down.

Two disparate books with interesting discussion on determinism: La Societe du Peleton by Cofidis pro Guillaume Martin (who has a degree in philosophy) and The Rigor of Angels by Eggington. The latter weaves through the work and lives of Heisenberg, Kant, and Borges.
