You may have seen this already, but there's a shortie piece in Oprah's magazine (Feb 2006) called Books That Made a Difference to Hugh Laurie. He wrote a four paragraph blurb on what makes a book memorable for him, and then a paragraph or so on each of the six books he chose, which are:
1) The Grapes of Wrath, by John Steinbeck
2) Moby-Dick, by Herman Melville
3) The Spy Who Came In From the Cold, by John Le Carre
4) Darwin's Dangerous Idea, by Daniel C. Dennett
5) Catch-22, by Joseph Heller
6) The Code of the Woosters, by P. G. Wodehouse
