I recently read Harold by Steven Wright, and I loved it. I enjoyed reading a book where I honestly could not predict what would happen in the next paragraph, yet it still coalesced into a coherent whole.

The only other author I know who could write like that was Richard Brautigan, and I was hoping the community could recommend some other authors to try.

Thank you. I never knew he wrote anything.

I was interested, and then i read the tagline by Bill Burr. I must read this now.
