A few weeks ago, we stopped Bowdoin students on campus and asked them to tell us about the books they happened to have with them. In a similar spirit, we're visiting some Bowdoin professors in their offices, asking them to tell us about a special or important book. To make it a little harder, we pick a shelf from which the professor then must select a book. In this video, English professor Ann Kibbie talks about one of her favorite biographies.
