4.0

Another illustrated book that grabs me as much for the pictures as for the prose. I started by flipping through to scan the bookshelves of authors I recognize and see whether we shared any common books (Michael Chabon included Cloud Atlas on his shelf). Reading it a little more deeply, it was interesting to see how various people reflected on their values and how these were reflected on their shelves.
