I am eager to start reading 's text, Contingency, Irony, and Solidarity, today. It poses an interesting argument that it is human stories and not that gets closer to the truth of the human experience. One can imagine such an idea expands from to the to even musical compositions. It is my opinion that such an argument really stands strong towards facing the future with positive potential for our species. That is, if we are to survive.

Ordered some books this morning.

Contingency, Irony, and Solidarity by , in which he argues that it is , not , that brings true social change. Even before reading it, I can say it seems he has a strong argument on his side.

Also (finally) ordered , 2 books, Major Cultural Essays and George Bernard Shaw's Plays (Norton Critical). I was told way back in undergrad that I needed to read Shaw. I feel guilty it has taken this long.
