D B C Pierre recommends

The Octopus Man (2021)
Jasper Gibson
"The Octopus Man reminds us that behind the words 'mental health' lies a universe of wild creativity, humanity, and spanking big life. A beautiful thing, this is The Dharma Bums meet Clozapine. Now is the time for this book."

I'll Sell You a Dog (2016)
Juan Pablo Villalobos
"A reminder of how effortless literature should be to love."

Endgame (2015)
Ahmet Altan
"If Steinbeck had written The Godfather it might have read like this."
