Recently, Karl Rove wrote a column for The Wall Street Journal about the competition he and now-former President Bush held every year to see how many books they could read.
Today, New York Times book critic Michiko Kakutani has an article about the books that have influenced Barack Obama. Nice to see that he’s a fan of Moby Dick and Marilynne Robinson.
