I suppose it's quite off-topic, but some weeks ago I read a small book by Mary Gaitskill, the writer of the piece.
It's called "Lost Cat".
I highly recommend it. Ironically, it might be an approximate opposite of Pale Fire. It's very short, with simple yet beautiful prose, filled with intense, raw emotions.
