Books
1Q84 Haruki Murakami
Covers a fictionalized year of 1984 in parallel with a "real" one. Acclaimed writer but honestly didn't understand it at all.
The Three Body Problem Cixin Liu
Portrays an alternate history where, in the first book, the Earth is awaiting an invasion from the closest star system. Considerably changed my world view.
Dune Frank Herbert
Set in the distant future amidst a feudal interstellar society in which various noble houses control planetary fiefs, Dune tells the story of young Paul Atreides, whose family accepts the stewardship of the planet Arrakis.
Song of Achilles Madeline Miller
Troy told from the perspective of Patroclus.
Steve Jobs Walter Isaacsson
Written at the request of Jobs by Walter Isaacson, a former executive at CNN and TIME who has written best-selling biographies of Benjamin Franklin and Albert Einstein.
Boomerang Michael Lewis
A look back in time and exploration of the reasons the 2008 financial crisis began.
Podcasts
