I own War and Peace, so I think I’ll take your suggestion and read that first. I have a lot of non-fiction reading to do, as well, so I’m not sure what fiction I will read after, but I’ve been thinking of reading Withur We, largely to support the author and because I’ve seen that people have enjoyed it. I recently picked up a book that I never finished reading, with the intention of reading it over the summer. It’s not fiction, but the author is an absolutely brilliant writer and the language is outstanding. It’s A People’s Tragedy, by Orlando Figes.

I’d be honored! I hope you enjoy!
Withur We is great if you are willing to pay for the book version or sit through 690 something pages on your computer (though it’s ending can be summed up as “We’re fucked, the end”)
The Unincorporated Man is an extremely good Science Fiction (though the bad guys are technically in a corporation and the government is small, it generally espouses Libertarian ideals and is great to read regardless) about various things like incorporation of people and nanontechnology.
Robert J Sawyer books are good once you get past the irritating problem of Socialist tendencies and the occasional repeat of ideas (Although the “Fabric of the Universe” changes in each book, the Canadian government is usually represented by some CSIS agents out to be bad guys and some scientists/doctors/etc out to be good guys. Capitalists are kinda like anti-heroes, doing good things but stealing stuff. Aliens, if they give a damn about the politics of Earth, usually have a boner for the UN.)
