On the subject of engaging or not engaging, I recommend these books:

"The Inheritors"  by William Golding - shockingly good and incredibly  
pertinent as ever, in terms
of who we are and what we do to our environment, our species and  
other species.

"Creaturely Poetics" by Anat Pick - "... human-animal distinction...  
exacts a devastatingly violent price on animals.."

"Pincher Martin" by William Golding

"The Green Child" by Herbert Read - who was incidentally an  
anarchist, (bloody art historian) although they forced a knighthood  
on the poor farmer's lad from Yorkshire!

Enjoy the read - by the real fire curled up in the little second-hand- 
or-skip-procured armchair.
