Need a book to read? Look no further than Babel by R.F Kuang. One of the most important books of the decade and a necessary reminder of what history and today’s society wants you to forget.
It is a perfect blend of history, language, magical realism, collective action and revolution. I loved the characters and I loved learning more about language and translation.
Secret History has NOTHING on this dark academia tale. (I could be bias though since I found secret history quite boring)
