Books, or Also: What I Like to Read
March 20, 20251 min readpersonal
Why don't I suggest you some books while we're at it. I love literature. Though, these attention-grabbing services leave me little time to pursue this passion the way I'd like. Still, I try to carve out moments for reading whenever I can.
I mostly gravitate toward the classics. They have stood the test of time for a reason. If you're looking for something thought-provoking, timeless, or just straight-up powerful, here's a starting point:
English Literature
- George Orwell: Especially "1984" and "Animal Farm". Uncomfortable truths, prophetic insight.
- George Bernard Shaw: Witty, sharp, and always poking at societal norms. Start with "Pygmalion."
German Literature
- Franz Kafka: Nothing captures the absurdity of modern life like Kafka. "The Trial" and "Amerika" are great intros.
Turkish Literature
- Mehmet Akif Ersoy: Deeply emotional, patriotic, and spiritual. His poetry moves you beyond the page.
Religious Literature
- The Qur'an: I keep coming back to it. Not just a book of faith, but a book of reflection and purpose.
What I Plan to Read Next
- The Art of War by Sun Tzu: Because strategy isn’t just for battlefields—it's for life, business, and clarity.
