I was asked who I’m currently reading, and this person was looking for contemporary authors. I had to think about it, despite my reading a little something daily.
In all actuality, this is less about the ability to compose this list as it is my inability to recall something point blank. Only when I am lying in bed later that night will I flesh out a reply at which point the irrelevance mocks me.
My reply:
Jonathan Lethem, Motherless Brooklyn
Paul Auster, NY Trilogy
Miranda July, NYer Shorts
Dave Eggers What is the What?
