   Personal: a few of my (non-math) favourite things:

• the Italian cultural webzines/magazines Minima & Moralia, Internazionale, gli asini, laLettura, Lo Straniero (closed with the end of 2016); The Paris Review;
• the graphic novels by Will Eisner, Art Spiegelman, David B., Igort, Adrian Tomine, Gipi, Guy Delisle, Daniel Clowes, Michel Rabagliati, Sammy Harkham, Rutu Modan, Gabriella Giandelli (see, for some of them, Coconino Press – Fandango – and Drawn and Quarterly);
• the movies by Mike Leigh, Patrice Chereaux, Aki Kaurismäki, Matteo Garrone, Céline Sciamma, Roberto Minervini, Valeria Bruni Tedeschi, Alice Rohrwacher, …
• novels, essays, poetry (too long list of favourite authors)

  I am presently reading Wave, by Sonali Deraniyagala (actually the Italian translation by Chiara Brovelli: Onda, Neri Pozza Editore, 2014)
