"Man is but a reed, the most feeble thing in nature, but he is a thinking reed" – Blaise Pascal

Early 2011 reading list

New year, new books to read. Here are the ones currently in my to-read pile:

– Michael Lerner, The Left Hand of God (started)

– Herman Melville, Typee (about halfway through this)

– Tomas Halik, Patience with God

– Eric Jay Dolin, Leviathan: The History of Whaling in America

– Martha Nussbaum, Frontiers of Justice

– Rosemary Radford Ruether, Sexism and God-Talk

One of my goals this year is to read more fiction, which this list doesn’t contribute much to. Any suggestions, dear readers, of stuff I should be reading (fiction or not)?

EDIT: Forgot to add Heiko Oberman’s Luther: Man Between God and the Devil, which I received as a Christmas gift.
