1. The Story of the Jews Finding the Words 1000 BC to 1492 AD by Simon Schama
2. The Life of Wallace Stevens The Whole Harmonium by Paul Mariani - a book for those into the subject matter

5. Return to Zion The History of Modern Israel by Erich Gartmano. An excellent introduction
6. Tennessee Williams Mad Pilgrimage of the Flesh by John Lahr
7. The Hotel Years Wandering in Europe Essays by Joseph Roth translated and introduced by Michael Hoffman. They come no smarter than Joseph Roth
