I figure this is a bit of an usual selection for HN, but here's the top of my in-progress list:
Moral Boundaries -- Joan Tronso
Known and Strange Things -- Teju Cole
The Feeling of What Happens -- Antonio Damasio
The Promise of Hope: New and Selected Poems -- Kofi Awoonor
And I just started Neil Gaiman's "Sandman".
