Enjoy weird fiction overall, sci-fi and “horror” (in a very general sense). I like some Lovecraft, VanderMeers, Ballard, China Miéville, Samanta Schweblin, late William Gibson, Mariana Enríquez… what recent books or writers caught your eye that may loosely fit the term or are similar to works of the above authors? Can be in English, Portuguese or Spanish.
I haven’t seen it mentioned yet so I’ll throw in my rec: the spear cuts through water. You know how they say you need to know the rules to break the rules? This book is a masterclass in that. It does so many things that novels simply aren’t supposed to… And the execution is flawless. The story is compelling, but I was most engaged with the way it was written. It felt like nothing else I’ve ever encountered - not because the ideas were new (nesting narratives, shifts in perspective, genre twists, etc) but because I’ve never seen so much of it executed so well together.
