Its a best seller across continents ?
@Ashish the post says “books no one talks about” not “books that don’t sell”
David Massey concede, but partially. Most friends have either, read, reading, or can’t stop recommending. ?. But yes, have not seen it getting discussed on reading groups on the net.
Have you read the follow up, though? Homo Deus. I haven’t yet. Mixed reviews on this one.
@Ashish I haven’t read the followup either but I will read it when I get around to it.
