Yeah. There is some reading I do out of a sense of obligation as a responsible American human being. It does not include vintage genre fiction. It only very rarely includes any fiction at all, and what little it does is usually by Nobel Prize winners or other figures on the world stage. Mostly it’s non-fiction: history, analysis of recent events, biological and geological sciences, stuff like thst. That’s how I look beyond my current knowledge and perspective, with most fiction being simply what I want to read, for any of a bunch of reasons.
