"I remember" by Joe Brainard had a significant role in Nunez' book too.

Thank you for adding this one!! I remember at one point I was reading th book in the car, feverishly taking notes, so I’m not surprised if I missed a few. What did you think of The Vulnerables.

This list could be a years long bookclub. And when we’re done with this list, we reread her book and see if it feels the same. I’m intrigued.

Thank you for that list : new books to add to what I want to read !

I have read all the French written ones and some are very favorites that I read and reread : Ernaux, Camus, Flaubert, Proust and Perec !

Now I want to read Didion’s and Hamilton’s from your list ! Thanks !
