I’ve recently gotten a small obsession with the idea of a single African currency or a single BRICS currency forming as a fuck you to NATO and the west. As a result i’ve spent far to much time this week reading wikipedia articles on the history of currency in colonial and post colonial Africa....

Looking for new books to read as I am preparing to head out on a much needed vacation and want to dig into some good reading. Can be fiction or nonfiction, just so long as it hooked you and made you want to keep reading and reading until the end.
House of leaves is a visual experience! While reading you literally risk to get lost inside his labyrinth of word and columns. I mean seriously
What are some of your favorite, must-read sci-fi and fantasy novels that transported you to other worlds? I want to get lost in a story and world.
