Cal Newport
If I don't answer your email, maybe you have this book to blame. It emphasizes the cognitive inefficiency of task switching, and thoroughly convinced me to change how I work.

- The Iliad. It's been on my list forever, and it's finally time (I think). I've heard to choose a translation that will help you get through The Iliad and enjoy it. So far, I am!
- Strong and Weak. This book has one of the most helpful frameworks for thinking about what in my life is not quite right and how I might make it better.
- Collected Poems. I don't understand any of these poems (if in fact they are meant to be understood). But I enjoy them.
- Jayber Crow. So far, it's my favorite Wendell Berry book. Very well-written prose and thought provoking!
