Books Worth Reading, Unexpectedly Considering the Source 2014-07-15T20:36:05-04:00 David Mills

LOGO Patheos Explore the world's faith through different perspectives on religion and spirituality! Patheos has the views of the prevalent religions and spiritualities of the world.

“Books a man should read,” especially when the list appears in Esquire, suggests a list of books you probably don’t want to read. You think of men in their thirties and forties of above average intelligence and above average sophistication but with below average morals. You expect a list of smutty books with big ideas.

But this list is actually good, judging from the books on it I’ve read (about sixty of the eighty). The compiler’s brief comments will flag for most readers the few I haven’t read and have questions about.
