A review by terhangus
Cosmos by Carl Sagan

5.0

my god... really, how do i even start talking about this book? that i want carl sagan to be my uncle? that i finally found a "science"-y person who also appreciates the wonder of the universe, world, & humanity so intensely that i feel it in my chest? that the soliloquy in the backbone of night made me want to cry because of how beautiful it is? i don't know. this book just affirms me even more that i have to be the person who still believes in the interconnection of the humanities/arts & the sciences, because as carl sagan so eloquently puts it in here, they're all part of humanity. the choice is clearly the universe or nothing. cosmos both humbled & uplifted me. i can't thank it enough.
