summer readings

[+ José Soplanucas]

Whether or not I will be able to travel this summer, it is my intention to make an effort to return to a forgotten hobby: reading. I thought we may share some recommendations here.

 

One novel I am very curious about is "Civilizations", by Laurent Benet. The original is French, so I will read the Spanish translation. The synopsis looks quite appealing: the author turns around History and imagines Europe conquered by the Incas. I wonder how deep he goes on imagining a world ruled by Incan Supremacy instead of our current White (European) Supremacy, or whether he walks at all on that ground. However, even if it is a plot about just playing with History, it sounds entertaining enough.
