Default Yuval Noah Harari

I don't know how I got here - a long old thread.

I was bought a kindle fire some time back, before my illness.

I bought Sapiens by the above author around 2015/16, and I'm glad to say that his theories very much agree with my own (!) - but he wrote a book, I just developed my own theories and pretty much kept them to myself.

I bought Homo Deus in late 2016, and read it - but have forgotten it so must read it again.

During my illness daily hospital visits and long days lying in bed - I read a lot of non fiction about D-day and thereafter from the German point of view.

Thank to this therad I have just become aware of Harari's third book - 21 lessons, and I've just ordered it online and watched it dump itself onto my kindle (now featuring a custom shattered screen!)
