What books do you recommend me to read?
I’m not sure what your tastes are but I’ll tell you some of my favorites! To be quite honest, I mainly return to the same books over and over again so the list is rather short and I doubt I have anything to recommend that you won’t have heard of already. I’ll recommend my favorites. It consists mainly of my usual rotation of things i read over and over or books that left an impression on me and I refer back to them often.
When it comes to the non-fiction section just like….keep in mind that most academic texts have many, many problems and I’m not presenting any of the texts I list as The Quintessential Must Read Best Flawless Overview of a topic, I’m mainly listing the books I have found to be approachable and reasonable introductions to topics. Read everything critically, always (and that includes everything else on this list, not just the non-fiction).
Plays:
An Oresteia, translated by Anne Carson (Aeschylus’ Agamemnon, Sophocles’ Elektra, Euripides’ Orestes)
Iphigenia in Tauris by Euripides
I mean like. Shakespeare, obviously; my personal favorites are Hamlet, Twelfth Night, As You Like It, Julius Caesar, and Macbeth; recently, thanks to the productions starring David Tennant, Much Ado About Nothing and Richard II have been added to the list
Doctor Faustus, Edward II, and Dido by Christopher Marlowe
Antigone, particularly Anne Carson’s translation, and after you’ve read Antigone, I’d recommend reading Antigonick, but not before
Lysistrata by Aristophanes
The Importance of Being Earnest by Oscar Wilde (I feel like Lady Windermere’s Fan is also kind of necessary reading and I do love it of course but I’ve only read it the once, for the sake of it, whereas I’ve come back to the Importance of Being Earnest a million times and the 2002 movie is one of the things I watch when I’m down)
Novels (and Epics)
Good Omens by Neil Gaiman and Terry Pratchett if you haven’t yet, obviously
Maurice by E. M. Forster
The Picture of Dorian Gray by Oscar Wilde
The Secret History by Donna Tartt
VIRGINIA WOOLF. everything but particularly the Waves, Orlando, and Mrs. Dalloway. The Waves is my favorite, followed closely by Orlando, but I’d start with the Mrs. Dalloway because it gets you accustomed to Woolf’s writing style and the way she approaches her characters if you haven’t read her before.
Pride and Prejudice by Jane Austen (If you haven’t read it yet and you have seen 2005 P&P and love it and you’re opening the novel with the expectation that it’s similar to the 2005 film in tone and feel, you’ll be disappointed. If you’ve seen the 1995 miniseries, that reflects it very well. So just approach it with an open mind with 2005 on the back burner and you’ll find it an amazing and very repressed love story)
Aristotle and Dante Discover the Secrets of the Universe by Benjamin Alire Sáenz
Brideshead Revisited by Evelyn Waugh
When the Moon Was Ours by Anna-Marie McLemore
The Iliad (the translation I own is Lombardo. It’s extremely approachable and colloquial and I enjoy it, and if you’ve never read the Iliad and you find it intimidating, I would very much recommend it, but my high opinion is not universal. Fagles and Lattimore are very popular translations and I like them both well enough)
I’m dying to get a copy of Emily Wilson’s Odyssey translation. I don’t love the Odyssey personally but I am a big fan of Wilson and from what I’ve read about her translation and what she’s said about it, if anything could make me enjoy the Odyssey, it would be that translation.
Wuthering Heights by Emily Brontë
The Song of Achilles by Madeline Miller. I would personally recommend reading the Iliad first just because Miller takes…….liberties with it, but I also don’t think there’s a problem with that at all, so if you’re not interested in the Iliad, or you think tsoa would get you interested in it, there’s nothing at all wrong with reading it on its own or reading it first. I just think it’s a genuinely more enjoyable experience to read the Iliad first and then see what Miller does with it. And regardless of what order you read them in, if you read them both you will understand how very different tsoa and the Iliad are from one another and you will not be one of those people who talks about the Iliad when what they mean is tsoa. Again, there’s nothing wrong with tsoa, it’s one of my favorite novels, but it’s just a very separate thing and it gets just a little maddening.
Autobiography of Red by Anne Carson. It’s both poetry and a novel but it’s got to go somewhere so
When I was 14 I got very into Les Mis and i will recommend it. I genuinely love it and it will always have a special place in my heart. I have read the entire brick only once however because as much as i love it. as much as i Relate to the infamous off-topic tangents. there is a limit to my patience.
The Epic of Gilgamesh is just like. extremely good. I really don’t know enough about it to recommend any specific translations; in high school I was given a stapled copy of the whole thing and I read that til I lost it and now if I want to reread it or refer back I just look it up online. I’m a fake fan.
Poetry
If Not, Winter: Fragments of Sappho translated by Anne Carson
The Beauty of the Husband by Anne Carson
Devotions, Felicity, and Winter Hours by Mary Oliver. Those are the anthologies that I have read and I adore them. I imagine that all of her anthologies are also amazing and all of them are on my to-read list. I don’t think you could possibly go wrong
I do not have the singular published collection of Elizabeth Siddal’s poetry (My Ladys Soul) but I have read all of her poetry and she is an amazing poet and I hold her very near and dear to my heart
Crush by Richard Siken
Useless Magic by Florence Welch……..yall knew what you came here for
Songs of Innocence and Experience by William Blake
Non-fiction and Essay Collections (again. None of these are recommended as the definitive, end all, be all, all-you-need book on any given subject, they’re just some of my favorites). I have limited myself to collection specifically because this is long enough already and if I start just adding essays it’ll never end. All of these were either purchased online for under $10, are available somewhere on the internet as pdfs, or were at my library, so if you look, you can probably find them somewhere (I say this bc while trying to find the authors of some of these I have been stunned by their retail prices and I’m assuring you, don’t be scared off by your initial search bc I sure as fuck did not pay $30):
Citizens: A Chronicle of the French Revolution by Simon Schama
Marie Antoinette: the Journey by Antonia Fraser (controversial but well-researched and approachable and I love it. I would recommend reading like. almost anything else first because Fraser does obviously focus on Marie Antoinette and her life and experiences; and while she does talk about the revolution, it isn’t the focus of this biography, and you won’t understand why it was necessary if you don’t come to it with a good grasp on the broader events outside Marie Antoinette).
A Day with Marie Antoinette by Hélène Delalex
Robespierre: a Revolutionary Life and Liberty or Death: the French Revolution by Peter McPhee
The Black Jacobins: Toussaint L’Ouverture and the San Domingo Revolution by C.L.R. James
If you’re at all interested in 18th century art, I recommend Rococo to Revolution:Major Trends in Eighteenth-Century Painting by Michael Levey
A People’s History of the United States by Howard Zinn is controversial. But it’s approachable and well-researched and if you don’t know a lot about American history, I recommend it highly (especially for Americans).
Eros, the Bittersweet by Anne Carson (okay literally everything by Anne Carson. All her essays, her poetry, her translations, her weird mashups, all of it. There are a few things I haven’t read yet but. I very much doubt you’re going to be able to go wrong, so just take what I’ve listed as my favorites)
This Changes Everything: Capitalism vs. The Climate and the Shock Doctrine by Naomi Klein
Black Against Empire: The History and Politics of the Black Panther Party by Joshua Bloom
Smoke Gets in Your Eyes: and Other Lessons from the Crematory and From Here to Eternity: Traveling the World to Find the Good Death by Caitlin Doughty (also the illustrations by Landis Blair are absolutely phenomenal. Look at this. I love it so much I pulled it out of the book to hang in my momento mori corner because it’s so beautiful.)
The Worst Hard Time by Timothy Egan
Alexander of Macedon by Peter Green is. okay we have a love-hate relationship, me and this biography; me, and peter green, but I have major issues with every single Alexander biography I’ve read and this was the first so if you want to start somewhere, I guess go for it.
The Empathy Exams by Leslie Jamison
The Honey Bee by James L. Gould. It’s out of date in some respects but a good, simple introduction into honeybee biology and behavior
Before the Deluge: A Portrait of Berlin in the 1920s by Otto Friedrich
Vanishing Bees: Science, Politics, and Honeybee Health by Sainath Suryanarayanan and Daniel Kleinman
Out of the Past: Gay and Lesbian History from 1869 to the Present by Neil Miller
Holy Madness by Adam Zamoyski isn’t by any means perfect, but it’s a alright introduction to the Age of Revolution. Just don’t let it be the only thing you read. It’s here because it has a special place in my heart as my introduction to it.
Between the World and Me by Ta-Nehisi Coates
Erotic Exchanges: the World of Elite Prostitution in 18th Century Paris by Nina Kushner
Radical Love: Introduction to Queer Theology by Patrick S. Cheng
Our Lives Matter: A Womanist queer Theology by Pamela R. Lightsey
Our Native Bees: North America’s Endangered Pollinators and the Fight to Save Them by Paige Embry
At the Existentialist Café by Sarah Bakewell (I really do not know that much about philosophy or existentialism specifically or this subject generally, so I have no idea where the faults of this book are, but I really enjoyed reading it and it made me think a lot. I have a feeling it’s very simplified so take it with a grain of salt as I did?)
Walden by Henry David Thoreau (just. just. it’s enjoyable but don’t get too into it please for the love of God). My copy (and I think most copies?) includes his essay Civil Disobedience as well which is very good.
Never Caught: The Washingtons’ Relentless Pursuit of Their Runaway Slave by Ona Judge
The Uninhabitable Earth by David Wallace-Wells
The Diaries of Virginia Woolf: I’m currently in the midst of volume 2 (1920-1924). They’re very enjoyable, but they’re something of an undertaking as all diaries are if you aren’t already very familiar with the biography of the person in question, so like. If you find yourself moving slowly don’t worry about it.
Gay Berlin: Birthplace of a Modern Identity by Robert Beachy
To Be Broken and Tender: A Quaker Theology for Today by Margery Post Abbott
The New Jim Crow byMichelle Alexander
The Environmental Case: Translating Values into Policy by Judith A. Layzer is a textbook that was assigned to me in my Enviornmental Policy class last semester and I really fkcing enjoyed it. It’s a book of case studies in environmental policy and it’s dense at times, but really interesting and enjoyable.
The Second Amendment: a Biography by Michael Waldman
Michelangelo’s Notebooks: the Poetry, Letters, and Art of the Great Master by Carolyn Vaughan. Just like. Genuinely. Genuinely. unintentionally hilarious. but also sometimes very sad, and very gay. I just adore Michelangelo. Just a shy foul-tempered repressed disaster. Jesus Christ.

Inami Anju V-Storage Interview September 2016
Tumblr media
An interview with Inami Anju from the School Idol Project Love Live! Series newest project, Love Live! Sunshine!!
From Sunrise x Lantis x Dengeki G’s Magazine arrives the 2nd generation of school idols that started on April 2015, Love Live! Sunshine!!. Set in Numazu within Shizuoka Prefecture, within Uranohoshi Girls’ High School, a new school idol group Aqours (A-ku-a), whose activities and growth were depicted in the broadcast of the TV Anime series, which will reach its climax soon! And now, this school idol group’s (Aqours) lively center, Takami Chika, will have her seiyuu, Inami Anju, be interviewed. Of course, we will also hear about her enthusiasm towards 1st Live♪
Chika-chan is like a shining, positive girl who endears others to follow her.
----First, tell us your honest feelings when it was decided that you would be playing as Takami Chika.
Inami: I was very shocked over the decision that I would be playing as Chika; at first, I didn’t really understand what was happening. Of course, I was happy over the decision, but on the other hand, I had worries over whether I really would be able to do it, and I was in constant disbelief over that too.
----How long did it take for the audition results to come out?
Inami: I had gone overseas for my theater work, and it was quite hectic, so I don’t remember much, but I think it was for around one month. Then, my manager suddenly received a call. I went to the specified location while thinking about how I did, and once I reached, I heard, “You’ve been chosen to perform as Takami Chika.” Because I had been telling myself off over the audition, this made me panic hard, while thinking, “It can’t be true, what do I do now…” (laughs) But because of the happiness over being chosen along with lots of other emotions, I ended up crying.
----What was your impression of the girl Takami Chika, whom you are performing as?
Inami: My first impression was that she was cheerful and a really straightforward girl.
----After performing as Chika, where do you think Chika’s appeal lies in?
Inami: Her way of cheerfully looking to the future of course, and being the pampered youngest sibling in a family of three sisters, I can also relate to her. In truth, I myself also really love Love Live!, so I supported μ's as a fan, and when I thought about the position I was in, it was like Chika-chan relative to Honoka-chan. And speaking of her differences with Honoka-chan, when I thought about how her appeal differed from that of Honoka-chan’s, Honoka-chan is the older sister, and Chika-chan is the little sister, and that difference is especially apparent when I perform as Chika-chan, which really caught my attention. Chika-chan is really a regular girl, and she has nothing special, and I think her charm lies in the fact she is a girl that can be found anywhere. And that kind of normal girl that anyone can be with and yearn for is what appeals greatly to me.
Tumblr media
Her words and actions also really draw others in.
----Chika is the youngest out of three sisters, but what about yourself, Inami-san?
Inami: I’m an only child, so I don’t really understand the feeling of having siblings. Saitou (Shuka)-san, who performs as Watanabe You, is actually the youngest child, so I asked her before having to perform, “How is it like to be the youngest child?” Among the members, there are more of them with siblings than being the only child, so I take in a lot when listening to their conversations, and in doing so I can apply it to my performance as Chika-chan.
----Did you also prepare yourself when discussing with the other members?
Inami: That was the case. As I expected, the performance can’t be done alone; what’s important is that we are working together with the others around us, something like playing catch. The more we got to know each other, the more we were able to flesh out the characters that we performed as, and the after-recording also was more fun. There was definitely this side of the girls, and the process of seeing each member and the cast becoming one was really enjoyable too, and thereby my performing also changed. What was revealed by the animation also resulted in changes, and I accepted it and performed accordingly. And because of that, while we were discussing with each other before the start of the after-recording, there were really a lot of things that we were looking forward to.
----Please tell us the similarities and differences between you and Chika.
Inami: Unlike Chika-chan, I have not been positive about the future (laughs). Because of that, I really admire the innocent Chika-chan who draws others towards her. The other members and people around me often say “You’re similar”, but I myself don’t think so. However, living with the intention of a positive heart is something that we’re probably a little bit alike in. I myself am quite pessimistic, which I don’t think is a good thing, as when I’m down it will also bring down the mood of my surroundings. But at the time that I was thinking of that, I met Chika-chan. What that resulted in was that I was drawn along with her and we were similar that we became positive together. And it is because she wasn’t confident in herself that she changed and lived with a positive and innocent mindset, and I think that is where we are really similar to each other.
----You did mature along with Chika while performing as her, huh.
Inami: That’s definitely the case. Her words, actions and others really drew in the existence known as Inami Anju. I really am thankful and strive towards her, something like an unreachable star (Todokanai Hoshi, reference to Todokanai Hoshi da to Shitemo). There’s still a lot more waiting in the future, and I’m really excited.
Tumblr media
I really felt her “I must not give up on my hopes and dreams” while performing as her.
----How was the mood at the after-recording?
Inami: It was fun and peaceful. Also, the screenwriter Nagasaki (Yukio)-san interacted with us sincerely, which really helped our mood. He explained it all in both lighthearted and serious tones, so we were able to perform the dubbing in a good environment.
----What are your honest thoughts when seeing Chika and the others moving in the anime?
Inami: I really couldn’t believe it; it felt like I was seeing a dream. These girls really looked alive, and I really felt like their story was finally starting. But I still wasn’t used to my voice that outpoured from the TV, as expected (laughs). Because of that, when I watched Episode 1, a rush of emotions welled up, and it made my heart beat really fast.
----If there are any scenes or lines by Chika that left an impression on you, please tell us.
Inami: What left an impression on me was the first scene in Episode 1 before the opening. Of course, one part of it was that it had finally started, and Chika-chan’s first steps towards wanting to aim to become a school idol could be seen, especially during the moment that she saw the shine, which reminded me of the time that I was really nervous during the after-recording. It was the beginning of the airing of Love Live! Sunshine!!, but it was a new start for me, so it is a very important scene. Other than that, there’s also the scene in Episode 8 where Chika-chan revealed to the other members her true motivations for the first time, and when I was reading the script after receiving it, I thought that everyone would probably consider this to be the defining scene for Chika-chan in the entire anime. And so, I usually return to the important points after reading the scripts, but this time I took all the scripts up to Episode 7, went to the studio earlier and reread it all the way until the last minute. I also yelled while entering, and there were also scenes that made me nervous. When the bright and positive Chika-chan who drew everyone towards her had the reality of the situation revealed towards her, she told her true motivation towards (Sakurauchi) Riko-chan. However, in reality I don’t really remember this scene well. Of course, I don’t remember my nervousness or other emotions well either, like as if they had just flown off; it was as if I had fully become the character I was voicing. This Episode 8 had allowed me to mature as a voice actress as well.
----Please tell us any points of note or recommended parts of this work.
Inami: Chika-chan might be a highschool girl who could be found anywhere, but it is because of this that a lot of people have dreams or aspirations of meeting her, and that allows them to face forward. I really felt her “I must not give up on my hopes and dreams” while performing as her, which is something to note about her.
Tumblr media
It feels like the Inami Anju who likes to sing is 50% made out of songs.
----Inami-san has liked Love Live! since beforehand as we’ve heard, so where do you think its appeal lies in?
Inami: I myself really love Love Live!, and I’ve watched it for a long time, and I have been able to participate in this work, which has given me lots of courage, hopes and dreams, which I think is its appeal.
----Have you liked singing ever since you were small, Inami-san?
Inami: I loved it. But I still can’t sing so I get stressed (laughs). It feels like the Inami Anju who likes to sing is 50% made out of songs, probably. It’s full of hard aspects, like the rhythm, scales, notes and others, and sometimes I get reluctant to practice (laughs), but even so I still liked it ever since I was small. And even with the good feelings and the tension of right now, the songs that we sang might’ve been the same as back then, but it was with a completely different nuance, showing that songs have infinite possibilities. Of course, acting is also like that. So if you take away singing and acting from me, then there will be nothing left of me (laughs).
----By the way, what songs do you listen to often? Also, if you have any artists you like, please tell us.
Inami: What made me like Love Live! was actually the smartphone app Love Live! School Idol Festival. I was really attracted to the songs, and then I liked the members as well, so basically I got into Love Live! through the songs, and μ's was a big part of me. Also, Hirano Aya-san (Actress, Seiyuu and Singer, who took part in many activities. Most famously known as Suzumiya Haruhi in Suzumiya Haruhi no Yuuutsu) was someone who I liked and admired. Even though my dream was to perform in a musical, I really felt drawn in when I performed and sang, and I had the same feeling regarding Love Live!, which is another reason why I love it.
I want to have fun in the 1st Live so that all the members will be able to smile.
----The 1st Live was also confirmed, and the practice for the dances are also hard, so have you been memorizing the choreography?
Inami: I can’t remember any of it (laughs). Apologies to the other members for not being able to memorize the choreography. I was from a vocational school, but I only had dance lessons 8 times a year. So, even though I was studying dance as if it were a special class, I wasn’t very good at it (laughs). It wasn’t that I disliked dancing, but there was a feeling of being lost.  However, I had many dreams of being in scenes in musicals with dancing and being able to reach my aspirations. They included dancing with a lot of feelings and looking beautiful, sexy, and cool… but it’s actually almost impossible (laughs). I was given a chance to try dancing and start learning the steps, but I couldn’t follow at all (laughs). Kobayashi (Aika)-san, the voice of Tsushima Yoshiko, and Saitou (Shuka)-san, the voice of Watanabe You, had dancing experience, so I relied on them both a lot. And when the anime was announced, and after I saw my own movements, I resolved to inspect our movements even more. And after I saw the way that dance experts presented themselves, I was able to dance in a cute manner. And then I learned from the other members as they were dancing, which made me more aware. The process of learning how to dance was really fun, and I also had a sense of accomplishment after that, and now I am able to give my all to face challenges.
----Please tell us about your enthusiasm towards 1st Live.
Inami: I was trying not to get the choreography wrong, but in truth I’m also bad at remembering lyrics, so it was chaotic (laughs). There are a lot of things I have to do from now on, so I have a lot of responsibilities and pressure. Without the other members I cannot stand in the center, which I realized during the first event. Aqours☆HEROES was the song that required me to go forward the most, to form a triangle as seen from the audience. When that happened, there was no one beside me, and the whole audience in front of me, and I was really scared the first time. I felt very uneasy about it during the rehearsals, but I really felt that everyone was behind dancing by my side with smiles when I looked through the mirror. My heart isn’t that strong yet, so I am unable to stand on stage without the other members. But if it were Chika-chan, she would definitely not be afraid, and she would take everyone’s hands and break into a run, and I myself was pushed from the back by Chika-chan which made me able to stand on stage, and the audience was also able to enjoy it, and I was able to give my all for that. I want to have fun in the 1st Live so that all the members will be able to smile.
Tumblr media
The beaches of Uchiura as seen within the work are also really beautiful, and I definitely want to go there to take pictures.
----What started your aspirations towards the world of acting?
Inami: I saw Kuroki Hitomi-san’s acting in a TV drama when I was in elementary school, and that was when I first wanted to try acting as well. But becoming an actress required me to be beautiful and have good style, and I wasn’t someone who had myself together, so I couldn’t do it, and then I gave up. But then, I happened to watch anime and found out about the job of being a seiyuu, and I thought that I could do such a job that didn’t require my looks (laughs). And that was when I began to aspire to be a seiyuu.
----What kind of person is the normal Inami-san? Please tell us your self-analysis.
Inami: I’m someone who is negative, pessimistic and lacking in confidence… I really can’t think of my good parts (laughs). But there’s one thing I can say, and that’s the fact that I love acting. The central focus of the person Inami Anju is her aspiration to become an actress, so I am not the type of person to want to stray from both being an artist and an actress. I’ve always thought that I wanted to become a good person to become a good actress, and so I don’t want to regret all the effort that I’ve put in. As for what I can deliver to people, I am experiencing many things, and I want to share my world to a lot of people. If I want to bring smiles to people’s faces, I want to also be able to put on a smile to show to everyone at any time, and to become the sun to anyone, which is what I admire about Chika-chan, and I wonder if I’m a little bit similar to that. It’s because I am naturally negative that I want to act positive, and so I have a sense of duty that I must live in a positive manner. Of course a change in mindset is a very big event for humans, and would I not want to realize this big wish of mine? I want to be someone who can grab the chance at that moment. And if I cannot grab that moment, then I didn’t try hard enough and am lacking in experience, but I won’t just say “some other time”, but I want to improve myself for the sake of being able to grab that moment. In relation to acting or singing, it’s not that I don’t want to lose to anyway, but instead I want to continue doing it with love, and it’s common for things to not go my way, and for setbacks to happen. What that means is that I am really not very good at expressing myself, so maybe I’m not the best person for those activities (laughs). When Chika-chan is next to me though, I am able to express myself in many ways, but since it is coming out from Inami Anju, I always wonder if it truly is alright. But this is exactly why I am able to take in many things, and become someone able to convert my negativity into positivity. Right now, I think I’m around 80% negative and 20% positive, but I’m also slowly changing myself that I can continue to increase the portion of positivity.
----If you’ve gotten into anything or been obsessed with something recently, please tell us.
Inami: I’ve gotten into detoxification, so I’ve taken enzyme baths, as well as watched my diet well. I definitely can’t lose my good health right now, so I’m looking for medicine that suits my body, and if I find any articles which catch my eye, I will note them down and try them out immediately. I started paying close attention to my health, and I tried out bouldering and yoga to build my body up. For the sake of taking care of my body for 1st Live, I’m running everyday, so I think I’ve also gotten into bodybuilding. Just like an athlete (laughs). Also, I’ve recently gotten into photography. Recently I went overseas, and at that time I took pictures of all my journeys with the other members, including all the silly smiles and the like, and I really liked to capture all the ambiences then. I also liked to take pictures of the scenery. I wanted to keep the memories of what I saw at those moments, so that when I look back at it, I will be able to remember what I enjoyed about it. The beaches of Uchiura in Numazu as seen within Love Live! Sunshine!! are also really beautiful, and recently I’ve felt that I want to go there to take pictures.
PROFILE
Inami Anju 
Born on February 7. Under Sony Music Artists. Radio personality and performer. Selected for the role of Aqours’s leader Takami Chika in Love Live! Sunshine!!.
ANCHAAAAAAAAAAAAAN
Okay anyway this is actually really late (I’ve been holding on to this from mid-November) but I finally got motivation to finish thanks to 1st Live being just around the corner. Why is Anchan so negative (makes you just want to go there and cheer her up and tell her everything is going to be alright)... 
Hai, to iu koto de, I hope everyone enjoyed this interview! It’s pretty long, but if you’re an Anchan fan, I think it’s a very good insight into her mind, and I hope that you will continue to support Love Live! Sunshine!! with your wallet.
Released as part of Team ONIBE.
