haven’t read any of his fiction yet but enjoyed both volumes of carbon ideologies. currently wrapping up part 1 of the abridged rising up and rising down, which is pretty good. as table says, his obsessive attention to detail is immersive, love all the historical threads he brings up and the sort of “dialogues” he constructs between the ideas of eg Trotsky and Lincoln or whatever. I enjoy his deadpan understated sense of humor as well.
