Not only one of the best book covers in recent memory, but also three of the most convincing and compelling book blurbs I’ve ever seen. Here’s hoping Juan Benet’s A Meditation will deliver.

Antunes is a disciple of Faulkner, so this does have that same veneer of complexity, but I found that if I just let the novel take the wheel I was able to scrape a lot of enjoyment out of it. (3/3)

@damiankelleher 2666 and GR are two of my favorites, I hope you enjoy them. I’m rereading GR currently and it’s such a rewarding experience. I love Vollmann but I haven’t read Lucky Star, but I bet it’s great. IJ is great as well, though I haven’t finished it.

@ryanhasbadtaste Seven Dreams is something else, I’m nearly done Fathers and Crows. That novel was such a fever dream. I read the first hundred or so pages of The Ice Shirt when I got it, one thing that I don’t hear people say about Vollmann is how funny he can be.
