Jonathan Lethem recommends
Corrupting Dr Nice (1996) John Kessel "Lucid, humane, and mercilessly funny, Corrupting Dr. Nice is a peach. If there could be great date books like there are great date movies, this would be one. Brilliant." | Stranger Things Happen (2001) Kelly Link "Kelly Link is the exact best and strangest short story writer on earth that you have never heard of at the exact moment you are reading these words and making them slightly inexact. Now pay for the book." | The Book of Illusions (2002) Paul Auster "An enthralling new summit in Paul Auster's art." | |
Vernon God Little (2003) D B C Pierre "Read Vernon God Little not only for its dangerous relevance, but for the coruscating wit and raw vitality of its voice..." | 360 Flip (2004) Molly McGrann "The book is terrific. I read it in a couple of compulsive gulps, and found [it] vertiginous, tragic and funny." | Trance (2005) Christopher Sorrentino "TRANCE will be placed on the very highest shelf of that art which explains the 20th Century to the 21st. " | |
Phone Rings (2005) Stephen Dixon "One of the great secret masters." | Remainder (2006) Tom McCarthy "A stunningly strange book about the rarest of fictional subjects: happiness." | How the Dead Dream (2007) Lydia Millet "One of my favourite contemporary American writers." | |
Zeroville (2007) Steve Erickson "Erickson is as unique and vital and pure a voice as American fiction has produced." | One for Sorrow (2007) Christopher Barzak "Barzak's sympathy and humor, his awareness, his easeful vernacular storytelling, are extraordinary." | Skinny Dipping in the Lake of the Dead (2007) Alan DeNiro "I'm thrilled to see him in bookstores at last." | |
Fugue State (2009) Brian Evenson "Brian Evenson is one of the treasures of American story writing, a true successor both to the generation of Coover, Barthelme, Hawkes and Co., but also to Edgar Allan Poe." |
