Interesting, Intellectual, Interrelationships submitted by ekjensen on July 1, 2019, 7:05pm David Brooks writes his discovery of the "Second Mountain" the next phase in his adulthood after achieving a career, family, and place in the world in journalism. It is heavily laden with references, really short quotes, that show he is well read, and how life is now more about people, doing good deeds and seeking faith and community. Not his best foray in book writing, as the Road to Character, is much better.
