Chuck Palahniuk recommends
thumb
To Dust You Shall Return (2021)
Fred Venturini
"Venturini doesn't write in words and sentences. Instead, he lines the page with barbwire, concertina wire and spike strips that deliver the story deep into the reader's skin."
thumb
In the River (2017)
Jeremy Robert Johnson
"A dazzling writer."
thumb
The Book of Joan (2017)
Lidia Yuknavitch
"It’s unfair to compare Yuknavitch to only female authors. With her verve and bold imagination, she’s earned the throne left empty since the death of David Foster Wallace."
thumb
Gone (2014)
One Kick

(Kick Lannigan, book 1)
Chelsea Cain
"In her Heartsick series Cain might cut your heart out. With One Kick she breaks it. If you're not crying by page 188 and terrified by page 290, you're not reading the right book."
thumb
Rust and Bone (2005)
Craig Davidson
"Davidson...smudges the line between comedy and horror, cruelty and mercy. His remarkable stories are challenging and upsetting...Don't look for comfort here."
thumb
Home Land (2004)
Sam Lipsyte
"I laughed out loud -- and I never laugh out loud."
