J M Coetzee recommends

Get 'em Young, Treat 'em Tough, Tell 'em Nothing (2022)
Robin McLean
"Not since Faulkner have i read American prose so bristling with life and particularity."

The New Adventures of Helen (2021)
Ludmilla Petrushevskaya
"In her best work Petrushevskaya steers a sure course between neutrally recording the degraded life of the Soviet-era urban underclass and ratcheting up the squalor of that life for the mere pleasure of it. She does so by the steadiness of her moral compass and the gaiety of her prose."

The Other Americans (2019)
Laila Lalami
"This deftly constructed account of a crime and its consequences shows up, in its quiet way, the pressures under which ordinary Americans have labored since the events of 9/11."

A Mouthful of Birds (2019)
Samanta Schweblin
"The Grimm brothers and Franz Kafka pay a visit to Argentina in Samanta Schweblin's darkly humorous tales of people who have slipped through cracks or fallen down holes into alternate realities."
