100 writers, designers, chefs, artists, musicians, and other creatives share the books that have inspired and shaped their lives, to collectively form the ultimate reading list. The books that we choose to keep and read can say a lot about who we are and how we see ourselves. In My Ideal Bookshelf, one hundred leading cultural figures share the books that matter to them most. The books that define their dreams and ambitions and, in many cases, helped them find their way in the world. Contributors include Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie, Malcolm Gladwell, Thomas Keller, Michael Chabon, Rosanne Cash, Alice Waters, James Patterson, Maira Kalman, Judd Apatow, Chuck Klosterman, Tony Hawk, Miranda July, Alex Ross, Nancy Pearl, David Chang, Patti Smith, Jennifer Egan, and Dave Eggers, among many others. With colorful and endearingly hand-rendered illustrations of book spines by Jane Mount, and first-person commentary from all the contributors, this is a perfect gift for avid readers, writers, and all who have known the influence of a great book.
