I’m looking for something kinda specific… so I’m picking up reading again and I’m not sure what authors or style of books I’m into anymore. The type of stories I tend to like are dark kinda morbid, weird but humorous. I don’t have a preference for the genre. I do like fantasy however I’ll read anything that’s “classic” or written before the 21st century. Also, I’m looking for something with no romance or sex. ( I know that sounds prudish but I don’t really enjoy it in movies or book unfortunately). It’s fine if it’s in the story but not the focus. I do really like character focused stories as well. Does anyone know of any authors or books I might like based on my description? I do watch a lot of movies and some directors I like are Yasujirō Ozu, Jean Renoir, Stanley Kubrick, the Coen brothers, and Martin McDonagh. Bonus: the main protagonist is female . Thank you!
