Dear Thomas,

Many thanks for this comprehensive list of books. Some of them I have read already. I see poetry is missing from the list. Though I am not a great poetry reader I have started liking it after I listened to David Whyte’s Audio book “Clear Mind, Wild Heart” and read his book “Crossing the Unknown Sea”. I realized poetry brings a deeper, different meaning and perspective to life.
