Future Companions

Not every meaningful book arrives at the right time.

Some wait patiently until we're ready to meet them.

These are the conversations I'm looking forward to having.

• The Republic — Plato

• The Life of the Mind — Hannah Arendt

• Beyond Good and Evil — Friedrich Nietzsche

• Never Let Me Go — Kazuo Ishiguro

• Station Eleven — Emily St. John Mandel

• Beloved — Toni Morrison

• Notes from Underground — Fyodor Dostoevsky

• The works of Shirley Jackson
