Recs if you like Homeland Elegies...

All of his picks since 2008, both summer reading lists and yearly round-ups.

Introspective books by people who observe a lot, ponder a lot, feel a lot, and write about it. Creative memoir, self-indulgent navel-gazing, or "wan little husks" (as Joyce Carol Oates once put it)... whatever you personally think about autofiction, including whether or not it really is a genre, this somewhat experimental form of writing most definitely gives both writers and readers a chance to engage in narratives in a different way.

Based on Nicholas Gaskill’s article of the same name, these books analyse the liberal response to Trump’s rise, through ontological alarm concerning the “post-truth” age and the fragility of autofiction.
