It is interesting, but it takes a while to get through and I keep borrowing it from the library and I can’t seem to finish it. Maybe I’ll continue it one day.

This was engaging to listen to, and I like the through-line theme: what sets Homo sapiens apart is the cognitive invention of being able to tell fictions. I haven’t taken a formal anthropology course, but this book makes me want to—in other words, I wanted more than the broad overview of human history given here.
