Surreal/Absurd Fiction
Looking for some new books to read. Know my way around Kafka although I should add a reread of the Castle to this. Also love the work of Italo Calvino. So I need some new books that will entertain my brain in a similar fashion. Also know of Tommaso Landolfi, it I do not remember his work. Any recs that veer toward Sci-Fi (alasdair gray) are also appreciated.

You might like Polish author Stanisław Lem’s science fiction novels. Ostensibly he’s writing science fiction, but actually he’s writing about the absurdity of life in Soviet occupied Poland.

Antkind by Charlie Kaufman
the Andy Kaufman of David Foster Wallaces
Motorman by David Ohle
