Re: Favorite novels

I have way too many to do a full list, but some of my favorites that don't get enough love

--The Birds Fall Down by Rebecca West - aka the only Cold War spy novel that's actually set pre-WWI and features a 100 page conversation about Russian political theory. But it's also really funny in parts.

--The Girls' Guide to Hunting and Fishing by Melissa Banks - I think this may have been a fluke because Banks' other work is meh, but it's so, so good and heartbreaking and she does a lot of interesting things with perspective.

--Interpreter of All Maladies by Jhumpa Lahiri, but "When Mr. Prizada Came to Dine" in particular.

--Special Topics in Calamity Physics by Marisha Pessl - it can seem sort of precious and hipster-y on first glance, but it's got a lot more to it. I know people say that's it's a Secret History ripoff, but it's certainly got a lot more nuance to it (and I can accept a lot more "following along with dumb shit and bad ideas" from high school students than college, for some reason)
