Caste: The Origins of our Discontents by Isabel Wilkerson
Studio reads of the week. Started reading _East of Eden_ in the midst of a feverish delirium. My flabbers were so completely ghasted at how Cathy’s character was crafted, that I had to pause and take a break by rereading Wilkerson’s _Caste_. #currentlyreading #booksky #books
