Destination: Isolation - Books to Read in Quarantine

Nov 28, 2020 by Martin Vogt

Let’s be real: Being under self-quarantine during the coronavirus outbreak is proving to be incredibly monotonous. Even browsing the web and watching Netflix episodes gets a bit dull after a while.

The silver lining of being stuck at home during the coronavirus pandemic is getting to cozy up with a good book - especially one that will encourage you to think about the world from new perspectives.


So why not become an armchair traveler instead? I’ve done the hard part—rounding up some book recommendations I wanted to share with you while self-isolating and quarantining at home:




1. A PROMISED LAND

By Barack Obama

2. The Plague

By Albert Camus

3. The 99% Invisible City: A Field Guide to the Hidden World of Everyday Design

By Roman Mars and Kurt Kohlstedt

4. Oasis: Modern Desert Homes Around the World

By iO Tillett Wright (Author), Casey Dunn (Photographer)

5. FALASTIN: A Cookbook

By Sami Tamimi

6. Humans

By Brandon Stanton


Ready to start reading? Why not use this time of uninterrupted reading as an opportunity to learn something new? What's on your "to read if I end up going into quarantine" list?

Let’s try to stay positive and hope that everyone stays healthy and safe during these sometimes, lonely and isolated days.

Please take care of yourselves.
