蒂姆·艾倫最喜愛的一本書是《禪與摩托車維修藝術(shù)》,作者是羅伯特·梅納德·波西格:艾倫先前曾做過修理工作,他選擇這本書絲毫不會令人意外,書中都在講關(guān)于怎樣讓機器良好地運行下去,但字里行間又透露出更深層次的含義。

克里斯·漢森最喜愛的一本書是《第22條軍規(guī)》,作者是約瑟夫·海勒:是不是覺得漢森會選擇這樣的一本書,有點諷刺?人們一談起他,就會與抓捕未成年人性騷擾者聯(lián)系在一起。而這本書講述的是戰(zhàn)爭的恐怖。
Ann Curry, The Once and Future King by T.H.White: Newswoman Ann Curry chose this book, composed of four shorter stories about Arthurian legend.

本·斯坦最喜愛的一本書是《洛麗塔》,作者是弗拉基米爾·納博科夫:斯坦可以堪稱是“書蟲”,他喜歡的作品可能非常多,但推薦的這本書出名之處在于其寫作風(fēng)格,細節(jié)描寫?yīng)毜?,以及大膽的色情題材。
