Scott Guild recommends
Two Truths and a Lie (2025)
Cory O'Brien
"A stunning achievement, Two Truths and a Lie is many things at once: a hilarious satire, a gripping thriller, a meditation on memory and identity, and a love story that will have you wiping tears from your eyes, all set in a carnivalesque future where the darkest dreams of capitalism have come true. Like other great comic novelists - Thomas Pynchon, Rachel Yoder, Charles Yu - Cory O'Brien balances humor and pathos to marvelous effect, a literary magician who can do almost anything on the page."
