      <image:title>Essays - Summer/Fall Reading List - The Wager: A Tale of Shipwreck, Mutiny and Murder By: David Grann</image:title>
      <image:caption>There’s nothing better than a good survival story, especially one filled with adventure, deception, and ghosts that return from the dead to take revenge on those who wronged them. Grann does a fantastic job of bringing the reader into this time period, educating them on the workings of a ship, and showing how desperation and inexperience can lead to tragic results.</image:caption>

      <image:title>Essays - Summer/Fall Reading List - The Pigeon Tunnel: Stories from My Life By: John le Carré</image:title>
      <image:caption>John le Carré, or, better said, David Cornwall, has always struck me as an erudite and slightly pompous man whose privilege granted him access to the upper echelon of British society. But, in truth, he was nothing of the sort, and used his chaotic upbringing, grit, and deep understanding of human desires to not only become a spy, but to write the best novels on spying ever conceived.</image:caption>

      <image:title>Essays - Summer/Fall Reading List - How to Blow Up a Pipeline By: Andreas Malm</image:title>
      <image:caption>The thesis is interesting: are we at the point where violent acts are the only way to save the planet from climate change? I don’t know if I buy the core message, and I’ll always feel like true thoughtful discussions with both sides are a more honest way of provoking change. But, Malm does make a good case for escalating the movement beyond peaceful protests, and makes you wonder who are the bigger villains: those companies who enable climate change or those who stand idly by and watch it happen.</image:caption>

      <image:title>Essays - Summer/Fall Reading List - The Making of Another Major Motion Picture Masterpiece: A Novel By: Tom Hanks</image:title>
      <image:caption>I was apprehensive about this one. Tom Hanks, the actor? But by about page 30, I was a hooked. Hanks brings you deep inside the pre-production and production of a fictional movie shoot, and creates some memorable characters along for the ride. It’s a fun, insightful, and easy read that illuminates all the moving pieces that come together to create what we see on the big screen.</image:caption>

      <image:title>Essays - Summer/Fall Reading List - The Art Thief: A True Story of Love, Crime, and a Dangerous Obsession By: Michael Finkel</image:title>
      <image:caption>I’d never heard of Stéphane Breitwieser nor the audaciousness of his crimes. But Finkel’s book brings him to life, along with his idiosyncrasies, his insanity, his motivations, and his passion. And who would have thought that billions of dollars worth of stolen art was hanging on the walls in an attic in France?</image:caption>

      <image:title>Essays - Summer/Fall Reading List - Unreasonable Hospitality: The Remarkable Power of Giving People More than They Expect By: Will Guidara</image:title>
      <image:caption>This was, by and large, the best book I’ve read all year. Maybe in the past five years. The lessons contained within are not reserved just for the restaurant industry, but for business and life as well. Normally, I don’t carry a highlighter with me while I read, but for this one, I found myself highlighting passages in each chapter. It’s a brilliant, brilliant book that will make you hunger for a 4-star meal and a world where people are devoted to making others happy.</image:caption>

      <image:title>Essays - Summer/Fall Reading List - The Story Paradox: How Our Love of Storytelling Builds Societies and Tears Them Down By: Jonathan Gottschall</image:title>
      <image:caption>The weaponization of storytelling has occurred for thousands of years and it doesn’t appear to be stopping anytime soon. I read this before the events of October 7th and it was interesting to see the news and propaganda coming from both sides through the lens of the messages of this book.</image:caption>

      <image:title>Essays - Summer/Fall Reading List - Yellowface: A Novel By: R. F. Kuang</image:title>
      <image:caption>What Kuang has done is created a central character with motivations beyond simply right and wrong. She’s made her complex and given her choices that are not always so straightforward. As a character study, this book is fantastic. As a look inside the world of publishing, it’s utterly fascinating. As a novel, it’s just ok.</image:caption>

      <image:title>Essays - Summer/Fall Reading List - Going Infinite: The Rise and Fall of a New Tycoon By: Michael Lewis</image:title>
      <image:caption>I’ve been a fan of Michael Lewis’s since I read Moneyball a thousand years ago. And while I liked Going Infinite, I didn’t love it. It seemed a bit rushed and took some giant leaps in time and explanation. Additionally, as Sam Bankman-Fried is currently on trial, this book would have been better served coming out after his sentencing. Still, there’s nothing like a non-fiction book about hubris and how it almost always leads to an epic demise.</image:caption>

      <image:title>Essays - The Spring Reading List - Tomorrow and Tomorrow and Tomorrow, by Gabrielle Zevin</image:title>
      <image:caption>This was one of those titles that kept appearing in various recommendation lists. I resisted because the title seemed weird, the cover seemed like a strange throwback to the 80s, and a story about video games didn’t seem intriguing to me. But when Georgia Butcher suggested I read it, and knowing her recommendations haven’t steered me wrong yet, I decided to give it a shot. And yeah, it’s fantastic. Ms. Zevin does a tremendous job of creating characters with distinct and non-obvious motivations. She paints the idea of love in many shades and uses love as a driving force through pain, happiness, and video games. That said, there is one moment of denouement that seems forced and a bit too deus ex machina for my taste. But it did lead to a satisfying conclusion that was unexpected, atypical, and ultimately successful.</image:caption>

      <image:title>Essays - The Spring Reading List - Red Notice, by Bill Browder</image:title>
      <image:caption>I’d heard about the horrors of doing business in Russia. But Bill Browder’s account is something altogether evil. And what Putin’s regime did to Browder’s employee, Sergei Magnitsky, was inhumane and demonic. This book is one part business creation story and one part revenge tale - and most in Browder’s position would have cut their losses and run. But Browder managed to not only make Russian oligarchs pay for the crimes they committed, but he also used his power to bring their crimes to light on a global stage.</image:caption>

      <image:title>Essays - The Spring Reading List - Freezing Order, by Bill Browder</image:title>
      <image:caption>My father-in-law suggested I read this, but seeing as it was more or less a sequel to “Red Notice,” I read that one first. The two books are one story told in two parts. The second book dives into the ramifications that Browder and his compatriots endured for exposing the horrendous corruption and insanity at work at the highest levels of the Russian government. I can’t wait for Browder’s inevitable third book now that the world has seen the psychopathic egotism of Putin and his costly and failing invasion of Ukraine.</image:caption>

      <image:title>Essays - The Spring Reading List - Chain-Gang All Stars, by Nana Kwame Adjei-Brenyah</image:title>
      <image:caption>Incisive, satirical, and painful, this is a tangible version of the Hunger Games that shows the faults of our private prison systems, our corporate greed, and the evils of fame. It’s sometimes blistering and poignant, comical and gut-wrenching, and altogether a tale that seems far-fetched but rapidly becoming a reality.</image:caption>

      <image:title>Essays - The Winter Reading List - The Count of Monte Cristo, Alexandre Dumas</image:title>
      <image:caption>Whenever I ask for classic book recommendations, Dumas’ most popular book is repeatedly offered. Not only considered a literary classic, it is considered an artistic masterpiece. And so, having spent some time in Marseille, and in search of an interesting story to keep me warm during the colder months, I cracked Monte Cristo open. The book is, genuinely, an all-time great. Thrilling story. Amazing characters. Beautiful prose. And it’s full of details that help capture what life truly was like for Edmond Dantés and his compatriots in France in the early 19th century. But dear God is it a long book. It’s as if Dumas wants to brag about his world travels and knowledge of different cultures. The book’s serialized nature is clear during the last two thirds of the book which is filled with padding upon padding. I still highly recommend reading the novel, and know that getting through the latter parts will help you understand the torture and isolation Dantés felt while imprisoned at the Chateau D’If.</image:caption>

      <image:title>Essays - The Winter Reading List - Savage Continent, Keith Lowe</image:title>
      <image:caption>Brutal. Absolutely brutal. Naively, I assumed once Hitler killed himself and the Nazi regime came to an end, that all went back to normal in Europe following WWII. History books don’t really speak about the post-war years, at least American books which talk about the joy and happiness that spread throughout the country following the return of the troops. But, this book is something else. It is not for the faint of heart. It shows man at his ugliest. It made me wonder, if I were ever in these dire straights, could I commit such atrocities to stay alive? For revenge? To say that I loved this book would be a bit odd. It was utterly fascinating. It shed some light on the pains that plagued Europe, and how wounds take decades and even centuries to heal. But it is a necessary book, one that should be appreciated and read with caution and a strong stomach.</image:caption>

      <image:title>Essays - The Winter Reading List - The Power Broker, Robert A. Caro</image:title>
      <image:caption>I finally did it. Having seen my friend, Adam Benditsky, carry around this absolute brick of a book for months in the late 00s, I decided to see what all the fuss was about. My introduction to Robert Moses was through Jane Jacobs’ equally compelling book, The Death and Life of Great American Cities, in college. She painted him as a villain, and I was eager to get a more rounded view of the man. (Spoiler, he’s pretty much a villain). On the surface, a biography of a man who built roads, bridges, and parks doesn’t seem to be that interesting. But Caro’s work is so complete, so engaging, and so well-researched that it’s one of the best books I’ve ever read. It’s not just a history of a man, but of a city on the verge of becoming the center of the world and how the power to shape it was fought over. Having spent a good part of my life in the New York metropolitan area, it’s incredible to learn not just how things were built, but why. I imagine Moses will be a controversial figure for centuries to come, especially as many of his works are now being dismantled and re-thought. But he was a visionary, despite his single-minded focus on the automobile and appeasing those who could bring him the most power. Note: When finished, one should read Moses’ response to the work, though it inadvertently doubles-down on the accusations in Caro’s book.</image:caption>

      <image:caption>American Kingpin, Nick Bilton I was only mildly aware of the Silk Road (thankfully), and all that the dark web had to offer. But learning how Ross Ulbricht created the site and his philosophy behind why he did it was fascinating, if not nefarious. This is the Icarus tale for the information age and proves that ego can only get you so far.</image:caption>

      <image:caption>Shoe Dog, Phil Knight A truly incredible look into how Phil Knight created Nike, how it balanced on the edge of insolvency for years, and the herculean efforts he made to keep it afloat. Knight doesn’t shy away from pains he went through, and how he turned it into the company it is today by staying true to his vision.</image:caption>

      <image:caption>The Gambler, William C. Rempel I’d never heard of Kirk Kerkorian before. But, as I was in the middle of my summer reading about titans of industry, and at the urging of my barber (who has made some excellent book recommendations over the years), I decided to check this one out. Kerkorian didn’t want people to know who he was, but his name is forever etched into the history of aviation and Las Vegas.</image:caption>

      <image:caption>The Ride of a Lifetime, Robert Iger It’s a bit strange looking back on this book as it ends with Bob Iger leaving his post at Disney, which means a sequel must be in the works as he was just brought back to the top seat. But it’s an excellent look into management, trusting in art forms to bring in audiences rather than strict financial analysis, and, above all, trusting your gut.</image:caption>

      <image:caption>Rogues, Patrick Radden Keefe Patrick Radden Keefe has quickly become one of my favorite non-fiction writers. His ability to capture characters, incredible circumstances, and explain weighty subjects with clarity makes him an absolute pleasure to read.

The situations he finds himself in are epically hilarious and strange. His comedy is slowly gaining fame in the US, and we’ll all be better for it.</image:caption>

Glen Berger, who wrote the book of Spider-Man: Turn Off the Dark takes us inside that productions troubled creation where egos, artistry, and disaster abound.</image:caption>

      <image:caption>The Extraordinary Life of an Ordinary Man, Paul Newman Paul Newman is a legend in my town of Westport. He made his home here. He donated to charities around the area, and large tracts of open spaces bare his name. So, I felt it was only fair to learn a little bit about the man. This memoir, which includes commentary from Newman’s friends and family members, gives excellent insight into his history, his craft, and how he saw himself in the world.</image:caption>

      <image:caption>Greenlights, Matthew McConaughey Looks like ol’ Matthew can add “amazing storyteller” to his bio. Admittedly, I’d written him off as a one-trick pony with charisma and not much else, but his latest acting endeavors have proven me (and a lot of the world) wrong. This collection of stories from his past are hilarious, touching, insightful, and sure to make you appreciate him even more. (Do yourself a favor and get the audio version of this book. Nothing beats hearing his stories told in his Texas accent.)</image:caption>

      <image:caption>Normandy '44, James Holland This is Band of Brothers on steroids. An in-depth look at not just the allies, but the German side of the invasion as well. It's an insightful and well-told look at a few crucial months of the war, and provides a look at the genius behind the allied invasion and the gross ineptitude of the Nazi leadership.</image:caption>

      <image:caption>Blood, Sweat, and Chrome, Kyle Buchanan Mad Max: Fury Road should not exist. The audacity of the movie, the insanity of the plot, and the sheer scope of the production should have made it crumble under its own weight. And yet, it became one of the best films of the past decade. This book dives into the film's behind-the-scenes moments and proves that the craziness on the screen is only a small part of the insanity behind it.</image:caption>

      <image:caption>Black Edge, Sheelah Kolhatkar "Whatever you do, don't short stocks," my father said when I started to dabble in stock trading. He saw it as an evil way to make money - betting against success. And yet, Steven A. Cohen became a billionaire doing just that. How he made his money, and the many dubious practices he employed at his firm, prove that it's a dirty game where greed may not be good, but it is lucrative.</image:caption>

      <image:caption>Say Nothing, Patrick Radden Keefe I was aware of The Troubles in Northern Ireland, but I didn't understand them.

      <image:caption>The Premonition, Michael Lewis As is typical of Mr. Lewis, he breaks down a point in time to a granular level and explains heady concepts in an easy-to-understand (and entertaining) manner. In this case, we are treated to a core team of geniuses who saw the tidal wave of COVID-19 coming, prepared for it, and then watched as their plans were washed away by bureaucracy and the ineptitude of the Trump Whitehouse.</image:caption>

      <image:caption>Station Eleven, Emily St. John Mandel A gorgeous and prescient book that shows the spider-like connections of humanity as they spread out along a post-apocalyptic world.

      <image:caption>The Cult of We, Eliot Brown and Maureen Farrell Another selection in my long line of corporate greed and malfeasance selections. This book centers on Adam Neumann, the co-founder and "visionary" behind WeWork. It describes the company's rise and Neumann's blatant avarice that caused its fall. On the surface, this book would seem to be just another tale of Icarus, but the characters of Neumann and those he surrounded himself with make it utterly fascinating.</image:caption>

      <image:title>Essays - The Summer Reading List - NEVERWHERE Neil Gaiman</image:title>
      <image:caption>My obsession with societies hidden in overlooked corners continues with Gaiman's classic about the underside of London. Mysterious, haunting, and filled to the brim with top-notch descriptions and splashes of pure fantasy. Gaiman's skill at creating multi-layered characters that have no right existing (in reality or the mind) is on full display throughout the novel, and their motivations will keep you reading through the end.</image:caption>

      <image:title>Essays - The Summer Reading List - PIRANESI Susanna Clarke</image:title>
      <image:caption>A man trapped inside an infinite house with an ocean in the middle of it? I'm game. It was ambiguous, metaphysical, and filled with beautiful imagery. This was such a strange and wonderful book that, truly, it's just something you need to read rather than have it explained to you.</image:caption>

      <image:title>Essays - The Summer Reading List - SLAUGHTERHOUSE-FIVE Kurt Vonnegut</image:title>
      <image:caption>I've been trying to check a few classics off my list, and Vonnegut's masterpiece final came up. At face value, it's a sci-fi retelling of the bombing of Dresden during World War II and the effects it had on those who witnessed it. But on deeper interpretation, it's perhaps (one of) the first novel to explore post-traumatic stress disorder and how those afflicted with it deal with the ramifications of what they've gone through.</image:caption>

      <image:title>Essays - The Summer Reading List - THE BOMBER MAFIA Malcolm Gladwell</image:title>
      <image:caption>How do we approach war? And how do the ends justify the means? Gladwell explores these questions along with an in-depth exploration into the history of the development of American military aircraft bombing techniques in this thought-provoking title. I'd recommend the audiobook as it features clips from real-life people that help to color this fantastic snapshot from history.</image:caption>

      <image:title>Essays - The Summer Reading List - EMPIRE OF PAIN Patrick Radden Keefe</image:title>
      <image:caption>The opioid crisis can be traced back to one single family, and Patrick Radden Keefe does a truly exceptional job at showing their rise, their evils, and their eventual downfall. It's heartbreaking in its revelations and shows how greed can be a truly devastating quality with ramifications that go beyond imagination.</image:caption>

      <image:title>Essays - The Summer Reading List - PROJECT HAIL MARY Andy Weir</image:title>
      <image:caption>One could consider this "The Martian, Part II" - a man, lost in space, facing insurmountable odds, who must rely on his scientific knowledge to work his way through it. But it's such a fun and thought-provoking novel that you can't help but be thoroughly entertained.</image:caption>

      <image:title>Essays - The Summer Reading List - KITCHEN CONFIDENTIAL Anthony Bourdain</image:title>
      <image:caption>I'm never ordering the mussels. Bourdain's look inside the commercial kitchens across America (and the world) is hilarious, insightful, and brutal. I've always enjoyed Bourdain's television series but put off reading this book for fear that it would be filled with recipes and knife techniques. It's not. Not even close.</image:caption>

      <image:title>Essays - The Summer Reading List - BLOOD MERIDIAN Cormac McCarthy</image:title>
      <image:caption>This novel isn't for everyone. In fact, one could argue it's not for most people. But if you can get past the raw brutality, you'll find some of the most beautiful prose ever committed to paper. The novel is both stark and colorful, direct and meandering. Some call it a contender for the Great American Novel. It may be that. It may be less. But it's a languid snapshot of a by-gone era filled with the evils of man that only McCarthy can capture.</image:caption>

      <image:title>Essays - The Summer Reading List - THE GUEST LIST Lucy Foley</image:title>
      <image:caption>This was my palate cleanser from Blood Meridian. A summer beach read in every sense of the word. Part character study, part whodunnit. A fun and quick murder mystery filled with characters both beautiful and despicable.</image:caption>
