It's summer, long days for reading cool books.
(If you're reading theory, maybe also hit us up with a cool quote you've read lately if there's something poetic that sticks out!)

I’m reading Moby Dick (annotated Norman Critical Edition) and really liking it so far. The annotation helps quite a bit with understanding the historical and literary references.
Listening to The Jakarta Method thanks to a suggestion by a Hexbear user. Holy shit, I can’t believe how uninformed I was about Indonesia. Far more important for the US in the 1960s than Vietnam.
Trying to listen to Culture and Imperialism by Edward Said, but I’m finding myself bored in the first few chapters and might give up.
Theory list I am very gradually (over months) reading:
-Theories of Surplus Value
-Socialism, Utopian and Scientific
-Grundrisse
-Art in the Age of Mechanical Reproduction by Walter Benjamin
-Intellectual and Manual Labour by Alfred Sohn-Rethel
-For fun, a book from an art exhibition, called The Economy Is Spinning which takes influence from Sohn-Rethel among others
