My second try to read this book. Deep, personal reflection on the role of memory in personal (and public) history and present. At least what I understand for now. Intending to finish this time.

Just another smart fox finished reading Make Time by John Zeratsky
As usual for me, the first book for the year to read is some quick personal development thing. This books is mostly the list of strategies/tactics on how to work on your most important things, how to deal with distractions and how to increase your energy to work more effectively (they call these three principles: Highlight, Laser, Energizer). Most of the things I already read elsewhere, so solid refresher. Everything is about implementation of course.
Just another smart fox finished reading Say Nothing by Patrick Radden Keefe
It is a well-researched story of the Northern Ireland Troubles period, focusing mostly on the IRA side. Quite a lot of space is devoted towards reflecting on post-conflict reconciliation (or the impossibility of it) and what happens to fighters when peace comes. I waited a couple of years to read the book, not disappointed.
Refreshing inventive detective story
5 stars
The story is told through emails and transcripts, get you surprisingly involved, and in a smart way as well, I did not expect that from a book I bought at the airport to avoid the tiring journey.
