Read for my bookgroup. Glad I did, as it took me to the art world I don't normally follow.

If you think we’ve got it tough (and we do), wait till you read what our great-grandparents had to contend with. When the Spanish flu attacked (spoiler alert: it didn’t come from Spain), the world was a century behind where we are today in science. British science journalist Laura Spinney takes us back into that even darker time, to the rumors and desperation, as well as to the lasting impact this worldwide debacle had on public health, art and literature.

After Bel Canto, I now read everything Ann Patchett writes. If she offered her shopping list, I’d read it. It’s not just that her writing is beautiful. Of course it is. It’s that she is an indefatigable champion for other writers, for books, for bookstores and for readers. She is America’s Book Sweetheart. (And even if you think you don’t like audio books, listen to a sample of Tom Hanks reading, and you may change your mind.) By the way, Ann offers her own timely favorite books on the PBS News Hour here.https://blog.wellreadlife.com/my_webl...

Heard her speak and she's not only a Tiger Mom but a Tiger Scholar. This book helped me understand how and why we screwed up in our foreign policy, and how our lack of language skills continued to block our understanding of the world. What a sad failure. Also helped me understand how Trump got elected.
