鈥淪hould we Stay or should we go鈥� by Lionel Shriver is worth reading for everyone with ageing parents. The story is an exploration of options for the elderly that are imaginative, if not ridiculous, and exhilarating, if not too close to home.鈥� -听Prof Alena Ledeneva, Professor of Politics and Society

鈥淢y doctorate is in Victorian literature, and I largely write on poetry, so perhaps something unfashionable, like Idylls of the King. (The book I own the most copies of is The Picture of Dorian Gray, though鈥�.)鈥� - Dr Dominique Gracia, School Manager at 香港六合彩中特网 SSEES

鈥淚f I were to recommend one book it would be 'Things Fall Apart' by Chinua Achebe which is about the colonization of Africa.鈥� -听Martin Wogido, Security Officer at 香港六合彩中特网 SSEES

鈥淚 often re-read my favourite classics like Kafka鈥檚 Castle, Milan Kundera, Hannah Arendt, Stefan Zweig and discover something new. If I had to choose only one, then it would probably be Karl Jaspers鈥� The Question of Guilt. That book has had a great impact on me as a scholar and person, and I often use it as my moral compass. Its message is simple yet complex, it鈥檚 nuanced yet generalisable. It鈥檚 short but can be discussed endlessly. I always try to sneak it in my classes whenever I can. I think everyone should read it.鈥澨�- Dr Jessie Barton Hronesova, Lecturer in Political Sociology

鈥淎 Little Life by听Hanya Yanagihara - extremely depressing but left me thinking about the characters for months after finishing it.鈥� -听Lisa Walters, Marketing, Communications and Student Recruitment Manager at 香港六合彩中特网 SSEES

鈥淚f like me you have little time to read fiction but love American novels, I commend to you Cannery Row by John Steinbeck. Not necessarily a recommendation, but I read E.H Carr鈥檚 Twenty Years鈥� Crisis as a History undergraduate student and it had a major influence in me wanting to study international relations.鈥� -听Dr Christian Emery, Departmental Tutor & Associate Professor (Teaching) in International Relations at 香港六合彩中特网 SSEES

鈥淭ranslanguaging for Equal Opportunities: Speaking Romani at School by J谩nos Imre Heltai and Eszter Tarsoly. This rich and multi-layered monograph about how a translanguaging curriculum can support the learning experiences of bilingual Roma students in monolingual Hungarian schools in Hungary and Slovakia is a pleasure to read and explore. One thing that clearly stands out for me and would be of interest to researchers concerned with the advancement of linguistic and social justice is authors鈥� ethical stance, their compelling and exemplary devotion to collaborative research that puts community鈥檚 self-definition and terms of participation front and centre in the research process.鈥� 鈥� Dr Jelena Calic, Asssociate Professor (Teaching) in Serbian and Croatian Language听

鈥淚 am happy to recommend the following book to read, either in Russian or in English; its images are below. It is because of this book I always ask for my Lecturers/Seminars on Literary Theory/Translation Theory, part of Modern Literary Theory core module, to be delivered in Semester 2. The book provides evidence that love is not an abstract notion.鈥� - Dr Anna Ponomareva, Lecturer (Teaching) in Russian Language
