Top 5 Jonathan Lethem Books

the blood a gambler's anatomy is a book it exists i remember a scene with a game of backgammon played with beef patties on top of a burger grill and that was a pretty cool scene

it's a very imaginative very defamiliarizing novel it made me look at certain aspects of contemporary society and modern life through a different lens

as she climbed across the table by far my favorite lithium science fiction novel with an asterisk in there and another one where lethal pushes your imagination to its limit just to try and comprehend the phenomenon this bizarre tear in the whole of creation that is at the heart of the noble

chronic city easily a candidate for the title of my favorite novel of all times bizarrely for someone who's so into lists and ranks i don't really have one and possibly my favorite

dissident gardens really is one of the books that helped me comprehend this dissonance and this gap most clearly by being centered in a way around the american communist party

girl in landscape is a space western that abandons much of the irony and dark humor that had denoted lithium's previous novels at that stage and deals with several really difficult themes most notably grief in a really lucid manner

gun with occasional music is a really weird one because in many ways it packs together and fuses brilliantly and seamlessly a lot of the genres and concerns that lithium would explore in later novels

motherless brooklyn would be the novel i recommend to anyone who's never read jonathan litham and is looking for an entry point into his uber it features his most compelling and unforgettable protagonist

it's so well orchestrated it feels very much like watching a beautifully crafted diorama a real pleasure

it's a beautiful book for everyone who finds themselves spending a long time thinking about the works of art the books movies whatnot that they love and for that reason i would recommend it to everyone really

the federal detective is a very topical novel i don't know if this is the thing but if other novels of this sort exist we would need to call this genre 2016 fiction

discovering this life throughout the many wonders and supernatural even occurrences that marked it is always a brilliant difficult but brilliant experience

a brilliant short story collection that i would still recommend everyone is the wall of the sky the wall of the eye it's haunting is putting it lightly

you don't love me yet is a good book i wouldn't say it's a very good book and yet it's still my very favorite rock and roll novel the best i've read so far at least
