The book summary recommended by Bill Gates is as follows: “For the past fifty years in America, our partisan identities have fused with our racial, religious, geographic, ideological, and cultural identities. These fused identities have reached a weight that breaks many of our politics and rips the bonds that hold this country together.”

3 – “Lincoln Highway”, Amore Towns

In June 1954, eighteen-year-old Emmett Watson was taken to his home in Nebraska by a juvenile labor farm manager, where he had just served fifteen months for manslaughter.

With his mother long dead, his father recently deceased, and the family farm mortgaging the bank, Emmett plans to take his eight-year-old brother Billy and head to California to start a new life.

But when the manager left, Emmett discovers that two friends from the working farm are hiding in the trunk of the manager’s car. They have a completely different plan for Emmett’s future, which will take the four of them on a fateful journey in the opposite direction – to New York City.

Filled with life, magic, imaginatively rich settings, and unforgettable characters, Lincoln Highway is an extraordinary journey through 1950s America from the pen of master storytellers.” So says the official summary of the work cited by Bill Gates.
