"ended up reading and posting about the wonderful "How to Say Babylon," by Safiya Sinclair. It introduced me to a culture and religion I knew little about. It's a tribute to mothers, a lesson for fathers and a testament to the unique power of books to show us new worlds."
"Rick Rubin's "The Creative Act: A Way of Being." It's a spiritual and creative guide from an unexpected source in Rick, who is a music industry legend. And it's also a great gift because the book itself is incredibly aesthetically pleasing."
