Your list has some really solid range there – Morrison and Kerouac are classics for good reason. Since you seem drawn to both literary fiction and memoirs, maybe try something like “Just Kids” also by Patti Smith if you enjoyed “Bread of Angels”, or go completely different direction with some Murakami if you want something that blends reality with strange elements
The mythology aspect in “Song of Achilles” was great too, so you might dig into more of that genre
Did you read Miller’s other book, Circe?
