Would you share the titles and authors of those two books?
- johnfn 6y agoInfinite jest by David foster wallace and only forwards - forget the author name off the top of my head. Infinite jest is pretty popular these days. The other I have yet to hear anyone say they have read.
- tomstuart 6y agoI’ve read Only Forward by Michael Marshall Smith. It stuck in my mind the same way that Vurt did. I still think about the man with no head sometimes, and the idea of a road being different when you’re going the other way on it.
- defen 6y agoLiking Infinite Jest suggests an interest in American literary maximalism and / or comic novels. Suggestions: The Sot-Weed Factor, Gravity’s Rainbow, Mason & Dixon, Underworld, and if you’re feeling particularly masochistic The Tunnel
- SamBam 6y agoOk, but was Infinite Jest ever an "unknown" book? I'm pretty sure it was one of the most hyped books in the world the year it was written. And I'm pretty sure it's always been in the 4.x's on Goodreads.
- johnfn 6y agoI’d never heard of it nor seen it on goodreads till I made my list. I’m sure it’s popular in some circles, but not mine.
