Shelves from a house tour
Books whose spines can be read on three stills from a video house tour, posted on X in October 2026 as Dakota Johnson’s bookshelves — Saramago, Sorokin in the NYRB edition, DeLillo, Anne Boyer, a run of Isaac Bashevis Singer — in the order they stand on the shelves. After them the books the post names but the stills do not show: the rest of Pynchon, Gaddis, Bolaño, Carlos Fuentes’s Terra Nostra in the Dalkey Archive edition and Sebald’s The Rings of Saturn in its first New Directions edition.
