The Life of Insects by Victor Pelevin.
It’s about the lives of several individuals who exist simultaneously as humans and as insects, in a decrepit formerly Soviet seaside town.

Rabbits by Terry Miles, I never dare recommend this to anyone even though it’s one of my favourite books of all time

The Last Samurai by Helen DeWitt (nothing to do with the Tom Cruise film). Been my favourite book for more than 20 years. It was out of print for a while but now it recently got on the NYT best books of 21st century so hopefully more folk will find it.
It will be quite divisive, i would say it’s more for literary folks and those who enjoy interesting ways of playing with style. Stories within stories, sections of different languages, interruptions within the narrative. The second half isn’t as awe inspiring as the first but I still just adore it.

Geek Love by Katherine Dunn is a very out there book that not a lot of people would be able to stomach. I just loved it. It’s funny, creative and has a very profound message, despite the weirdness. I can never find a person to recommend it to lol.
