Books & margins

Reading

Nicole Junkermann gathers books, references and quiet lines — arranged less as a list than as a route through ideas worth returning to.

A good book leaves marks in the margin — and the marks, with their reasons, are worth keeping.

01

Books and margins

Titles are kept with the marks they earned — a line underlined, a corner folded, a thought saved for later.

02

Ideas worth revisiting

Some references stay open for months, until a later reading circles back to them.

03

Reading by route

Reading follows threads between books, so one title quietly leads on to the next.

A reading table, mid-thought

Best caught in the middle of things: a book open, a few cards fanned out, a line half written — reading as movement, not arrival.
