I started reading this 'The Dawn of Everything: A New History of Humanity' after it was recommended in Daniel Cohen's book Une brève histoire de l'économie
It's a big book and it's probably why I stopped reading it at some point because the french edition, besides being pretty ugly, was too big and heavy and it's got tiresome to read it in bed ! Anyway, I got a smaller and good looking edition, so back to it!
I read ~100 pages and I can already tell without exagerating that it's a life-changing book to me.
