Recently, I discovered Art Garfunkel's official website. Hidden away within its depths are a set of lists of all the books he has read throughout his lifetime. I was really impressed, not only that he has read probably every English language book on the planet, but that he also kept a record of them from June, 1968. Check it out.
I was intregued that his favorite book of all time is Rousseau's Confessions (1781). I'll have to read that as soon as we've settled in.
