This summer, our librarian Sam challenged herself to read more, starting with books from our collection! Her first pick is Orientalism by Edward Said. Here's what Sam has to say:

Orientalism is a foundational text on how the West has come to view the Middle East and Near East as "the other" in need of "civilization" throughout a history of brutal colonization, examining how these views still influence politics and cultural portrayals. I picked this both as a challenge to myself to read more academic works, and because the topic could not be more relevant with ongoing current events.

You can find this book on display at the front of the Library all summer (once Sam is done with it)!
