Recs if you like The White Tiger...

A list with (your!) recs ✍🏻📚, because i am tired of searching on social media and finding nothing. We have to solve that.

This list is dedicated for all the book recommended and mentioned by Louisa Munch - critical theorist. I follow her Instagram account almost from the very first videos. Louisa inspired me to organise better my political reading and she always gives some nice recommendations to inform yourself about the political landscape of today. I just wanted to have all the books in one place, plus the ones which I found on my own reading journey.

We can't have a democracy without informed citizens - Louisa Toxvaerd Munch

Books where avarice is a central theme.

This list is based on the book by Joan Anim-Addo, Deirdre Osborne, and Kadija Sesay (This is the Canon: Decolonize Your Bookshelves in 50 Books)

As the title suggests, the book aims to broaden readers’ horizons. The list contains works by non-white, mostly female authors.

Epistolary delivery: Books told in the form of letters, journals, diaries, texts, logs, etc...

A collection of Indian literature written by Indian authors.

Throwback to when my English teacher gave us a list of all the books that have appeared on the ap exam and told us to pick one to read…hopefully I’ll make better choices this time

(List currently only has top 20 books with most appearances and books with authors last names starting with A)

Books that have been adapted as Netflix Originals Feel free to comment any that need adding!

Behold: yet another of my 2 a.m. deep dives - this time into epistolary literature! The list starts with some of the earliest examples of the form and follows it into the present day, from stories told through letters and diaries to those built from emails, texts, transcripts, and other documents. Whether you’re a longtime fan or completely new to this genre, what interests you most about it?

(A quick note: I put this list together using Wikipedia, blog posts, and Reddit threads. I did my best to keep everything in chronological order, but a few mistakes may have slipped through - it was 2 a.m., after all. If you have any suggestions on what else I should add, I’d love to hear it!)

Unique perspectives from different countries, from seemingly average people ; and how their stories dwelve into local histories, issues, questions and beyond ✨
