Have picked back up Sexual Desire by Roger Scruton. Very dense, very worthwhile.

Hadn't heard of this one by him.  I'll have to pick it up some time.


I've been reading Faith and Political Philosophy: The Correspondence Between Leo Strauss and Eric Voegelin, 1934-1964 which is really actually much better than I had expected. I thought I would find it interesting but it honestly has managed to far exceed my expectations. I guess I was expecting a somewhat narrow treatment of the topic, but it is rather broader than just a discussion of faith and political philosophy and goes into some detail on the general work of both Strauss and Voegelin. It's also my first real exposure to Voegelin at length, so that has made it interesting as well.

This is one I definitely mean to read at some point, as I'm interested in both Voegelin and Strauss.  Recently I've been going through parts of The Eric Voegelin Reader.
