How many folks here are familiar with the writings of Yuval Noah Harari?

What I garnered from his books, which go back to pre-history and look toward the future is this. America's cherished, largely made up, shared stories most of believed in are failing us right and left and we have nothing to replace them. Hence, this mess. Discuss if you wish. Just my two cents.

2. Haven't read anything by him but I'm buying a copy of Sapiens

The New Yorker published an article about him that got me interested. Not sure what to expect but will give it a try.

5. Yuval Noah Harari has a respectable YouTube presence

A quick way for picking up what he's putting down. I might suggest packing a lunch.

7. I read two of his books.

I’m also reading Timothy Snyder, the Yale Historian. I’m trying to figure out the odds of what is going to happen to our American/human lives.
