Kasia Krzyżanowska, RevDem editor
of the Review of Books section, recommends five books read in 2023.
Only two out of five books recommended here were published in 2023 (including a one translation of a book
from the 50s). This very subjective selection assumes that some socio-political problems tackled by the proposed books do not have an expiration date and they can evoke awe, disbelief or anger even decades after the first publication.
