Stumped again!

Hey, folks! We're again stumped by a cover in the New Yorker covers contest, and we're again too impatient to wait for the answer! (And by we, I mean me.) Can anyone tell us what #4 is? (And if you know all, go tell the New Yorker and maybe you'll win yourself a new book!)

UPDATE: The New Yorker has put me out of my misery! I'll link to rather than posting the answer, in case anyone wants to belatedly play along.

  2. 1 is, I think, 100 Years of Solitude (or else something by Marquez.)

    3 is The House of Spirits.

    I don't recognize the others, I'll have to go check out the answer.

  3. Number four is the cover from the 1962 Grove edition of Jorge Luis Borges's "Ficciones".
