Welcome to Zoom mode.
Washington is a city of readers, but it’s also a city where people want you to know what they’re reading. At a time when people’s Zoom backgrounds have become signifiers of their aesthetics and values, POLITICO Magazine asked some of the most interesting people in politics—not just in Washington but across the country—what they’re reading and proudly displaying on their bookshelf for all to see. The selections span a variety of genres and forms, from history to thriller to memoir. One person even picked a book written by another person on our list. Read on for all the recommendations.
