Historia
An accessible, expert introduction to one of the greatest minds of 19th century. Whether you're completely new to him, or if you're already familiar with his work, Kierkegaard: A Single Life presents a fresh understanding of his life and thought. Kierkegaard was a brilliant and enigmatic loner whose ideas permeated culture, shaped modern Christianity, and influenced people as diverse as Franz Kafka and Martin Luther King Jr. Though few people today have read his work, that lack of familiarity with the real Kierkegaard is changing with this biography by scholar Stephen Backhouse.

This book divides itself between a biography of the Kierkegaard’s life and a summation of his works. Listening to the biographer’s account of his life, especially his relationship with Regine, it struck me how… immature is the best word I can come up with, his feelings and actions were to her. He certainly seemed to have a reactionary personality. The summations of his works was really great as were those luminaries he influenced. Highly recommend.

Historia
In the summer of 2015, Ross Douthat was moving his family, with two young daughters and a pregnant wife, from Washington, DC, to a sprawling farmhouse in a picturesque Connecticut town when he acquired a mysterious and devastating sickness. It left him sleepless, crippled, wracked with pain - a shell of himself. After months of seeing doctors and descending deeper into a physical inferno, he discovered that he had a disease which, according to CDC definitions, does not actually exist.

Way more than just an examination of lime disease. It probes the mystery of illness itself.

Historia
A winner of the National Book Award, The Moviegoer established Walker Percy as an insightful and grimly humorous storyteller. It is the tale of Binx Bolling, a small-time stockbroker who lives quietly in suburban New Orleans, pursuing an interest in the movies, affairs with his secretaries, and living out his days. But soon he finds himself on a "search" for something more important, some spiritual truth to anchor him.

I've always wanted to read The Moviegoer but never managed to get around to it. Listening to it was a great alternative. The narrator is excellent, and the story, while not having much action, is beautiful in its prose, its development of characters and in its themes.
