Let’s say that world has ended. They are some people that survived and they want to rebuild civilization. What books do you think are essential? Any genre… biology atlases, agriculture guides, electricity basics, water purification, medicine, history, philosophy, chemistry, physics, languages, dramas, fantasy, Kafka, religions. EVERYTHING THAT COMES TO YOUR MIND. Please give me titles and authors. I want to build my own library 😀

I constantly think about this, and yet have no answers. I love the idea of “found books” like what’s in the library at the Wall in GOT? And the Sumerian libraries we’ve found.
Please help us.
