Rodrigo Fresán: “Con mis libros me gusta descuadrar al lector, como la propia vida”

Rodrigo Fresán En ‘Melvill’ aparecen las obsesiones de Fresán –leer y narrar, la herencia de los padres a los hijos, la vocación literaria– esta vez contadas a través del padre del escr…

I seem to be the only one who has used the #RodrigoFresán hashtag, not sure if #bookstodon isn't familiar with him. If you're the type of reader who gets a thrill out of recognizing obscure literary + pop culture references, Fresan calls himself a "referential maniac". His Invented/Dreamed/Remembered Part trilogy is an absolute whirlwind. You'll particularly get a kick if you love Proust and Nabakov, are a bit weary of Knausgaard, and love sci-fi and meta fiction. https://www.openletterbooks.org/collections/vendors?q=Rodrigo%20Fres%C3%A1n

Doing the #bookstodon 7 books to know me thing, mostly because I can’t for the life of me focus on #Proust longer than 2 seconds:

#LucyMaudMontgomery, Anne of Green Gables
#AnneCarson / #Sappho, If Not, Winter
#MarciaDouglas, The Marvellous Equations of the Dread
#HermannHesse, Glass Bead Game
#ItaloCalvino, If on a winter’s night a traveler
#RodrigoFresán, The Invented/Dreamed/Remembered Part trilogy
#JennyHval, Girls Against God

Tonight, I'll finish reading #Solenoid by #MirceaCartarescu (I read somewhere here that using hashtags on Mastodon is the only way to signal searchable words in posts ... since I'm hoping to find kindred spirits... hence the hashtags.) Which means that I have some processing to do. Reading Solenoid makes me want to go back to #Hebdomeros and #Maldoror. Also, #Ice by #AnnaKavan (1967) employs similar transitional techniques. In my reading queue are #TheRememberedPart by #RodrigoFresan ... /1
