Greetings from Read Max HQ! Every week, sometimes on Fridays, sometimes on Sundays, and sometimes … on another day, I pick out some worthwhile and overlooked books, articles, movies, and music to recommend to paying subscribers. This week I’ve got:

  • A list of books and articles about UFOs, from across the paranoid-to-killjoy spectrum that have helped me think about the phenomenon

  • A beautiful and charming Italian comedy from the ‘90s

  • A great set of mixes of post-post-punk music

If any of that sounds interesting -- and if you want to support Read Max in its continuing mission of explaining the future to relatively normal people -- please subscribe below. Subscribers get access to these weekly emails and to the comprehensive Read Max Master Lists of Good Movies to Watch and Good Books to Read. If you’re already a subscriber, thank you.

As always, we start with a dispatch from the future (click through for thread):
