It doesn't get better than this: a collection of memorable and not-so-memorable lists, clever and pedestrian lists, surprising and poignant lists from the famous and the infamous. I lingered over this for days on my first read and then turned back to the front and reread my favorites. Here are some you must take a look at: a list scribbled by JFK's secretary of possible suspects in his murder...fifty suggestions for the names of the seven dwarves...Sir Isaac Newton's list of sins he has committed...Marilyn Monroe's list of dream lovers....Oh, you must read this book.
