Books of 2022: The Big Picture of What I Hope to Read in the Year Ahead

 


Here is a picture of 61 books I hope to read, have already started reading, or plan to re-read in the year ahead.

Jon Meacham's biography of Thomas Jefferson.

Civilization by Niall Ferguson.

The Decameron.

And at least three books by Hannah Arendt.

Happy New Year!
