I’d definitely recommend The Sot-Weed Factor. I read it after these two books and remember loving it. Strangely after that I hadn’t read any more Barth. I’ll get to Giles Goat-Boy soon, thanks for reminding me about Barth!
I really need to read Barth: you've made him sound like an accessible Beckett, exploring what storytelling says about us as people. How did you get a copy from another TH-camr? Lucky secondhand bookshop find?
I completely agree! Yeah, it was a coincidence. He mentioned that there was a copy of 'Laura Warholic' at that store, and when I went to buy it I also got this. He told me later that he traded the Barth book in haha.
