@pijrrh Apologies! But here are a couple (maybe?) obscure faves:

Elif Batuman’s "The Idiot: A Novel"

John Keene’s "Counternarratives"

@pijrrh For a weird, but not too-weird, bit of late-60s sci-fi escape, Roger Zelazny’s "Lord of Light" is a trip.
@pijrrh Garner’s "Red Shift" IIRC was a wild read, it might be a bit heavy. Not sure I remember it well enough to recommend.
