Re: I haven't read Travesties. Is it better than his other stuff? Danae al'Thor Send a noteboard - 10/10/2010 09:29:18 PM
I would like to know your (current) favourites:

1. Metafiction.


Italo Calvino's If on a winter's night a traveller.

2. Playwright.


Tom Stoppard's Travesties.

3. Absurdist.


Lewis Carroll's Alice in Wonderland (maybe a bit of a stretch, but...)

4. Cyberpunk.


No idea.

5. Modernist.


Virginia Woolf's Mrs Dalloway.

Thank you!


And since I had nothing to recommend on number 4 I am going to just throw in The Gone-Away World because I think you would like it.
