Thoughts on this? Loved the "discontinuous first-person” but found the ending a little at odds with her character.
One of my fav NYRB so far. What are some others?

Looks interesting, I'll check it out.
One of my favourite is The Book of Ebenezer Le Page, by G.B. Edwards.
It's a very long and thorough story of the life of one man on Guernsey, but is filled with charm and a sea of characters, while showing the development of the island in the twentieth century. I recommend it to everyone I know.
I also really enjoy
>Journey by Moonlight - Antal Szerb
>Skylark - Dezső Kosztolányi
>The Summer Book - Tove Jansson
>Hard Rain Falling - Don Carpenter
>The Invention of Morel - Adolfo Bioy Casares
>The Door - Magda Szabó
But these are much more well known, on Veeky Forums and in general.
Beware of Pity
Has anyone else on this board read Zama? I haven't seen in mentioned before and I'm curious what other people thought.

Waiting patiently for this and The Farm in the Green Mountains.
That said the actual Review has gone from 5/10 with those 5 being excellent to 1/10 after the election. Pure liberal ideology, Reductio ad Hitlerum, and hyperbole. At least prior to that they had well known authors reviewing classics once an issue.
I finished it. I cant say it was great, but the last part was much better than the first two. The actual protagonist was interesting.
