It seems that pretty much everyone in Wes Anderson’s The Royal Tenenbaums has written a book or two — after all, how else are a family of geniuses and their assorted hangers-on supposed to entertain themselves? To remind you of their collective brilliance, Criterion posted this collection of books and magazine covers (the one featuring Eli Cash as the “James Joyce of the West” made us giggle). So add that, and the rest of the books on this list, to our ever-growing stack of fictional books we wish we could read. So now, if someone, preferably a genius, could take it upon themselves to actually write these, we’d be very appreciative.
