Umberto Eco’s enduringly popular manual “How to Write a Thesis” is more than a guide for undergraduates; the book is a celebration of the magical process of self-realization. nyer.cm/WxpGn3h

Chelsea Hotel is one of New York’s most famous literary locales, immortalized in music, movies and literature. In her memoir, Patti Smith described it as “an energetic, desperate haven for scores of gifted hustling children from every rung of the ladder.” nyti.ms/3Bqc3Ne

I'm actually crying about Beverly Cleary, even though she had a great and long life. Her writing was so empathetic, funny, and observant. Here's what I wrote about her when she turned 100. newyorker.com/culture/sarah-…

Tom Hanks doesn't need to do anything except exist but is humble enough to seek bookcases for support. He offers his reality and his dreams with politics, baseball and space exploration but the question is what's in the case. It's our heart, of course. We gave it to Tom long ago.

Steven Pinker keeps his books in the sort of chiller section a coffee shop uses to store sandwiches. If you want to stay on the cutting edge your knowledge has to be fresh.

Salman Rushdie gives us a long, sombre bookcase thundering past like a great goods train filled with credibility. His dome is bathed in the glow of understanding. A lamp pops brilliantly in the distance. Salman's lesson is that thought illuminates fact. Without it, all is murky.

Bedtime stories engage listeners’ imagination and, in so doing, allow them to escape what psychologists call “the cycle of rumination” econ.trib.al/RWTrmvu
