Art Garfunkel’s Reading List

I’ve just discovered that Art Garfunkel is a voracious reader.

He’s kept a list of the books he’s read for the last 30 years, and they’re listed at the Garfunkel Library.

He has a wide range of interests; here are a few that he’s read:

The Waning of The Middle Ages (Johan Huizinga)
Just So Stories (Rudyard Kipling)
Our Mutual Friend (Charles Dickens)
To The Lighthouse (Virginia Woolf)
• The Book of Job

On his site he also has a list of his picks for the top 60 rock songs and his favourite pieces of classical music.

Via The Presurfer.

    Imagine my surprise when I found the list. I should have kept one such myself - not that I will be anywhere near as famous as Garfunkel :)

    I know–it made me decide to keep one (it’s in the sidebar of my other blog–http://www.amynelsonmile.net/booksblog). It’s fun to look back and see what I’ve read.
