Another vote for Caro's magisterial biography of LBJ. I read all 4 volumes this year, and cannot praise them highly enough - not just a masterful biography, but an exposition of the country and how it changed, plus penetrating analysis of power and how it is gained and used. Let us hope that Mr Caro finishes the 5th volume in 2023! I also read Don Quixote this year - Edith Grossman's translation is excellent, capturing the joy of the original, and laugh-out-loud funny in places. |
