El Hombre Invisible
Never thought I'd say this but...I'm starting to hate all literature (novels)...oh, the angst of it all....when browsing the racks, peeking at the prose, then feeling nothing but disgust with what I see...overly 'literary' middle-class angst...formulaic 'thrillers'...sci-fi deep space empire nonsense...aaagh! I spit on it all.
Perhaps I've become like JG Ballard when he said a few years back that he rarely reads fiction and could just read Burroughs all the time. But I've got all of Bill's stuff.
Yes, what I'm asking for are recommendations for this jaded reader. Come on...
(Tips: Burroughs, Ballard...Cormac McCarthy...Raymond Chandler...David Goodis...I like.
Anything about middle-aged men with record collection/child issues...dragons & Fantasy...marriage/love trouble novels...an epic portrayal of three generations of a family in China/India/Russia/Brick Lane...no)
