C Dubya 04 0 Report post Posted October 31, 2003 I've been stuck on the same authors for some time now and would like to branch out a bit. I pretty much only read Vonnegut, Tom Robins and Chuck Palahniuk right now and have made my way through almost all of their collective collections. Could anyone please recommend similiar styled authors. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Nighthawk 0 Report post Posted November 2, 2003 Stewart Home bears some similarity to Chuck Palahniuk. He's quite a strange guy, a member of the Lettrists, a death-art/coprophilia cult which was spawned by the proto-punk French band The Situationists. A lot of his work dealing with the punk scene isn't very good, he's in it too deep, but I have read and will heartily recommend his books Cunt and Slow Death. Luke Rhinehart (which is a pen name, but I can't remember whose) is another Palahniukesque author you might try. Read The Dice Man. Tony Vigorito is somewhat like Vonnegut, I recommend his Just A Couple of Days. Actually, I consider Ray Bradbury to share some of the style of Vonnegut, but you're probably familiar with him already. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Rollerball Report post Posted November 7, 2003 I would try Gabriel Garcia Marquez, Gunter Grass and Thomas Pynchon, they have the same anything can happen vibe. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
