one of the books that I thought was absolutely fascinating was times Arrow Martini's because I don't know if you've read it but the narrative flows backwards in that the character starts off as an old man and then time moves backwards but he is thinking forwards so it's a it's a very interesting note
Time's Arrow (1991)
In Time's Arrow the doctor Tod T. Friendly dies and then feels markedly better, breaks up with his lovers as a prelude to seducing them, and mangles his patients before he sends them home. And all the while Tod's life races backward toward the one appalling moment in modern history when such reversals make sense. "A novel that seems to have been written with the term 'tour de force' in mind ... Amis's radical rethinking of time ... brings the abomination of the Holocaust home to the jaded late-20th-century reader in a way that few conventional novels could". Village Voice Literary Supplement. "Splendid ... bold ... gripping from start to finish".--Los Angeles Times Book Review.
