Just started Robert Gellately's "The Gestapo and the German Society: Enforcing Racial Policy 1933-1945". Awesome book. No more "the Germans didn't know" myths. Highly recommened to understand how nazi crimes were comitted and to understand what Nazi Germany really was.

Also "Neruda's Postman" by Antonio Skármeta, "Madame Bovary" by Gustave Flaubert and "Breakthroughs in Science" by Isaac Asimov.

About to start Len Deighton's "Winter" too.
