Indra Das recommends
The West Passage (2024)
Jared Pechaček
"This is one of the finest fantasies of this decade, a sweeping storm of fiercely human creativity to drown the pallid temptations of our era's algorithmic storytelling."
The Spear Cuts Through Water (2022)
Simon Jimenez
"Reading Simon Jimenez's The Spear Cuts Through Water feels like dreaming an impossibly epic movie, cinematic yet fluidly surreal, a mythic tale of clashing gods that never loses its human heart."
The City Inside (2022)
Samit Basu
"An instant classic. . . . Captures in perfectly immersive disorientation the sense of India as a country perpetually spaghettifying in the event horizon between competing mythic pasts and futures."
