There didn't seem to be anything like enough questions to come to such conclusions, but hey, maybe these people are smarter than I am...

You're Ulysses!

by James Joyce

Most people are convinced that you don't make any sense, but compared
to what else you could say, what you're saying now makes tons of sense. What people do
understand about you is your vulgarity, which has convinced people that you are at once
brilliant and repugnant. Meanwhile you are content to wander around aimlessly, taking in
the sights and sounds of the city. What you see is vast, almost limitless, and brings you
additional fame. When no one is looking, you dream of being a Greek folk hero.

Well, there's only a choice of 64 books...

And 64 is 2⁶ and there are six questions asked, but I infer that there are in fact 1+2+4+8+16+32 = 63 questions that might be asked. Trust me, I used to be a mathematician.

This bit soudns like you. Except it's not aimless because you're writing a book in your head.

Is absolutely me. It's my idea of tourism, of holiday, of work: that whole flaneur thing. When I was in Seoul, I was first the guest of the British Council, then I went independent for a few days; when I linked up with the BC again, they asked what I'd been doing, and that was all I could tell them: wandering aimlessly. Looking, listening. I love it. (It's how I survive in London, too: treat it as a foreign city, and just drift...)
