Finally got my hands on this one. I'm almost through the first two essays, "Against Interpretation" and "On Style" and it's some pretty interesting stuff. Not hard to read either. Thankfully, she's written a fair amount of non-fiction like this, so I know what I'm going to be reading up through 2018.

She’s great

I have that one as well! As a follow up may I recommend the No Gods No Masters Anthology of Anarchism?

From Amazon:

The first English translation of Guérin’s monumental anthology of anarchism, published here in one volume. It details a vast array of unpublished documents, letters, debates, manifestos, reports, impassioned calls-to-arms and reasoned analysis; the history, organization and practice of the movement—its theorists, advocates and activists; the great names and the obscure, towering legends and unsung heroes.

That looks intense

I remember trying to read Chomsky in highschool. That was not an easy task.

I just started reading the lord of the rings. I havent read this one in forever and after a Hobbit movie marathon picked it up from the library. I did some background research and found out JRR Tolkien was deeply religious and a troop during ww1. Who knew?
