Just finished Jüngers Waldgang. Really blends well with motives in his
other works particularly Heliopolis. It offers an interesting
perspective on a freedom of choice within progressing technical world
shaped by a figure of a worker.

As for related recommendation read In Storms of Steel by
aforementioned author. Its great even if you are not particularly into
ww1 related themes.

Currently reading the Canterbury Tales. It's historical literature but
the short stories format keeps it fresh and interesting, as well as
good for reading in short sessions.

"Unix: A history and memoir" is a comfy read. There's some technical
stuff in it, but it's mostly just recounting stuff that happened at
bell labs

is it a comfy read? I never had too much interest because it seems
like a parody of itself

Reading through the various Sackett books L'amour rn, not necessarily
comfy but they're comfy reads to me. Also the Doc Savage books are
always comfy in a weird way.
