NonFic of the week 26 November

If I can get through the dual borefests (so far) of Main Street and On Such a Full Sea, I plan to read The Yellow House by Sarah Broom. It's a memoir about the home in New Orleans where Ms Broom grew up in her large family, and how it continues to impact her life, even after Katrina destroyed it. Goes into some of the ups and downs of living in New Orleans as well.

It's not often that people write about their own experiences with the relationship between houses and those who live within them.

So what non-fiction is everyone else reading this week?
