"I'm almost certain his brain is wired to a dictionary" is the best description of Ocean Vuong's writing style I've ever heard

[@conneegorman9241]

Now that I am 70 years old and retired I can read all I wish! And you are definitely the best of what you do. Many of your recommendations have been simply priceless to me as I grow older. It's wonderful to hear from the handsome brilliant young vibrant man. Thank you from the bottom of my heart

The way you talk about representations of our internal life in literature. 💕 I also instant buy most Irish authors. 🇮🇪 Yes Claudia Piñeiro! 💛I'm reading A Little Luck right now and it is also excellent.

[@atiyarahman3089]

Damn Ocean Vuong's book "On earth we are briefly gorgeous" was the only book after "the man called ove" which made me cry like a mad woman. The ending, protagonist's love life, his relationship with his mother, the war going on. God it was so much misery to take from that book🥺😭❤️

[@JuliaRoseHabertoes]

I read Small Things Like These on the strength of your recommendation and WOAH. I found myself back in the bookshop a week later picking up Foster. Turned out the bookseller was a Claire Keegan fan too and we had the loveliest little chat. So please keep embracing the earnest love you have for these authors, you are leading folks right where they ought to be!!

[@kevscomet]

I loved what you had to say for rónán hession. we really don't give enough credit to our internal lives. i was just thinking about dreams too. i don't think about them as prophecies, but more like actual experiences that we go through. sometimes they're even more real than just passing thoughts. at least to our internal selves.

[@jeannareadsbooks8475]

I speak Spanish but am by absolutely no means fluent, so I have been trying to improve by reading Spanish books. Elena Knows was the first book that I read in Spanish where I wasn't just understanding it, but was appreciating the quality of the literature. There was an extended metaphor throughout the book of being like "a pod without seeds" to describe something being empty and useless and in that instance I feel that being a non native speaker actually added to that experience. I wasn't familiar with the words "un vaina sin semillas" before I read this book, so I had to spend extra time with the sentence and rollerdex in my mind through the different possible interpretations of those words to make sure I understood it correctly. When I got off the tram and walked to work that morning after the first time that metaphor is used I felt like I had been hit in the chest because it was so impactful. The quotation mark thing was an absolute pain in the ass though. I worked out after a while that there were no speech marks, but it was still hella confusing

[@jenvcampbell]

'Elena Knows' isn't Claudia's first book, she's got many, many more, so there's lots of excellent things to discover! My favourite backlist title by her is 'All Yours'. It's very Patricia Highsmith ☺ x

[@bethanyyuan]

My first book from Madeline Miller was Circe and I instantly fell in love with her writing style. If she publishes anything else in the future it'd definitely be an instant buy. (Also I tried really hard not to get distracted by reading each titles on the shelves. Anyone else?)

[@cubitum-eamus]

AHH YES MADELINE MILLER IS DEFINITELY ONE OF MY INSTANT-BUY AUTHORS TOO. that woman could publish her shopping list and i would read it immediately

[@hayleywarnes4458]

Read song of achilles!!

[@bethstratton3391]

Yes! All of these people are go-to authors for me too. I adore all of them. I am a massive fan of Japanese and Korean translated novels; so for me Sayaka Murata, Mieko Kawakami, Haruki Murakami and especially Han Kang are top favourite authors in that field for me to devour. Martin McInnes is an author whose books I can’t wait to read. I enjoyed his first two books, but In Ascension is the book that made him a go-to author for me, as I now can’t wait for the next novel he pens. As for Vietnamese authors, I adore Ocean Vuong sooo much, but I also love nguyễn phan quế mai. As for other poetry book authors, I absolutely love Alice Oswald and have read everything I can get my hands on. Other go-to authors I enjoy are Abraham Verghese, Orhan Pamuk, eka kurniawan, Elif Shafak and Juan Gabriel Vásquez.

[@ayeshasara8400]

I am also a fan of Japanese literature. Please recommend me some of your favs!!

[@bookoffholicbookwart5945]

There's no better way to start a morning than watching Jack talking passionate about books and authors. The people who know him in real life must be really lucky. To be able to converse and exchange knowledge with someone who is always looking for new things to learn and appreciates literature.

[@laurenfinley731]

Ocean Vuong could publish his grocery list and I’d buy it

[@samanthadiaz2318]

No cause he literally published a poem in the form of a grocery list (it was an Amazon history list, i believe, but fair enough) in "Time is a Mother" and it was so moving and so profound in its expression of grief, like goodness i can't believe a grocery list made me sob.

[@idanordstrom8643]

My top author is Neil Gaiman. I will read (and re-read) literally anything he puts out, no matter what. I am absolutely obsessed and have two whole shelves in my bookcase dedicated to his books. I am also currently waiting for a package with more Gaiman books, and might have to start yet another Gaiman-shelf once they arrive…

[@Julia-gj5yt]

Fantastic list. Murata and Kawakami are for sure on my list, as well as Kazuo Ishiguro and Ann-Marie Macdonald.

[@samdelaney]

Rónán is pronounced more like Row-Nawn, just an FYI. The accent over the vowels is an acute accent used in Irish called a fada :)

[@trayvixk4642]

I completely geeked out when I found out Anton did the translation for BTS book a few months ago. Loved all the works he's done and it was definitely two worlds colliding that they got Anton on this project.

[@mahadhyanti]

Such an incredible list of authors, Jack! Mine are Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie, Arundhati Roy, Haruki Murakami, Dan Brown, and Dee Lestari (she's an author from my country, Indonesia).

[@jinsepiphany_]

Mine are Frederik Backman, Emily Henry, Han Kang, Stephen Chbosky and two authors from my country named Sebastian Fitzek (mostly thrillers) and Ferdinand von Schirach (if you can find translated versions of his works, I highly recommend his short story collections - brilliant!). And thank you for recommending more great writers on the regular 😊

[@twoofuslt]

Die Deutschen hehe, bin kein Thriller-Mensch, aber Ferdinand von Schirach steht auch 100% auf meiner Liste

[@jeeranko3359]

Couldn't find his short stories, but did find his full-length novel Terror. Do you recommend this one?🤔

[@jinsepiphany_]

@@jeeranko3359 Oooh, that's an interesting one. It's written in the form of a play, following a court session and at the end, the author kinda let's you decide the verdict, but also provides reasonig for both scenarios - setting the accused free or sentence him as guilty (according to German law). For a novel, I prefer "The Collini Case". But his (3) short story collections really hit different and his writing style is just raw and brilliant. I think in English they are called "Crime", "Guilt" and "Punishment".

[@twoofuslt]

@@jeeranko3359 I think his short stories are a bit better but it is great as well, you could literally read everything he wrote, it makes you question your own values a lot

[@jeeranko3359]

@jinsepiphany_ oh, found the Collini case as well! Thanks for your recommendations!

[@Pattyperu70]

Love Claudia Piñeiro”s books. So glad she’s getting translated to English. Really liked Elena Sabe but loved Catedrales. Also her last book El Tiempo de las Moscas is sooo good. It’s based on the same character of a short book, novella, she wrote years ago called Tuya (Yours). I just bought La buena suerte and will be reading it soon. Got to meet her at the Hay Festival in Arequipa, she’s great, and so interesting to listen to. Can’t wait dor her next book

I am hanging out to read Madeline Millers take on Shakespeare. She opened my mind and heart to Ancient Greek mythology so I can’t wait to see what she does with the bard. I love your discussion on the internal emotional life. I get so sad looking at young men whose internal life is a violent computer game and I’m so glad my son is also reading and writing and freely expressing his emotions at the ripe old age of ten! I have every Maggie ofarrell book written, I’m working my way through Geraldine brooks and I find frederik Backman very funny.

[@EmyN]

"Violent computer game" that's so accurate lol

[@karakask5488]

Some of mine are Donna Tartt and Maria McCann (both average one per decade, and it's about time for both), Sally Rooney, Kyung-Sook Shin, David Mitchell, Tana French... I'm sure there are more I just cant think of them right now

[@boxdfin5808]

[@macylightfoot]

I loved Claire Keegan anyway but I was very recently reading one of the Booker long listed books, Old God's Time by Sebastian Barry, and it made me appreciate Keegan's writing even more. Lots of people love Old God's Time but it just had me constantly thinking of how talented Keegan is that she can do so much with so few words/pages. And it's like you say, she just very gently leads us through these stories and leaves us with this emotional release at the end, in a way that even up to the last few pages you just don't expect.

[@laurapeschke7245]

Definitly Adiba Jaigirdar, Sabaa Tahir and Hafsah Faizal, also Taylor Jenkins Reed, Nina LaCour and Julia Armfield

Ocean Vuong is definitely one of mine...at least when it comes to his fiction. He has mostly poetry books, and I'm not a massive fan of poetry in general. But I do know he is working on another fiction novel which I'm very excited for! My other "Inta Buy" authors are Kim Stanley Robinson, Andrew Holleran, and Garth Greenwell.

[@luizabertolini5556]

Maggie O'Farrell since "Hamnet" and A.K Blakemore since "The Manningtree Witches" are DEFINITELY in my insta-buy list ♡ I'm working my way through Douglas Stewart, Charlotte McConaghy, & Madeline Miller, and I'm very confident they'll be auto-buys for me

[@julesc4279]

I‘m sure you’re aware of it, but in case not, Claire Keegan has also published 2 short story collections, Antarctica and Walk the Blue Fields. I haven’t read them yet but we talked about one of the stories at university and it was brilliant, so any Claire Keegan lover will probably love these collections as well!

[@larrythelatypus]

Maggie Stiefvater. I had read Shiver a very long time ago and loved it, but didn't realize how magical she was until i read the Raven cycle. that universe (by extension, the dreamer trilogy) restarted my love for reading, as I stopped for awhile because I was always reading something for class and didn't have the energy or bandwidth for my own book. I was so busy in high school and I loved reading, but didn't do it often. her YA is written in an incredibly smart and adult understanding, it doesn't hold your hand, it doesn't feel like you're reading YA. she's moving onto writing adult fiction, and I am so fucking excited to see what she does. I haven't read all of her work yet, but I have a portion of what little bookcase I have dedicated to her work. absolutely stunning person, I love her so much. instant buy always

[@neliaaa]

Sally Rooney all the way! And obviously Ottessa Moshfegh, Kazuo Ishiguro, Salman Rushdie, Elena Ferrante, Ian McEwan, Mieko Kawakami, Haruki Murakami, Margaret Atwood ❤️‍🔥🫖 (& Madeline Miller & Maggie O'Farrell & Ngugi wa Thiong'o & Antjie Krog & Tsitsi Dangarembga) I have only read small things like these by Claire Keegan, but I can't wait to read Foster!

The auto buy authors for me are Wally Lamb, Sheri Reynolds, and Kate Sawyer (solely based on The Stranding) come to mind. Yes elder fan LOL. younger readers probably have not heard of them with the exception of Kate Sawyer who is new to me last year. As you mention James Baldwin and Tori Morrison are timeless authors to follow but could be read throughout ones lifetime. Lessons in Chemistry by Bonnie Garmus would make me pick up whatever she writes next!! I have never talked out loud to a book in my life until this one!!!

My insta-buys are Akwaeke Emezi, NK Jemisin, Neil Gaiman, Kazuo Ishiguro and Becky Chambers.

I only have one insta-buy author for me and it's Becky Albertalli. I do believe EVERYONE should read her books. She is truly amazing. Her writinv style is stunning. it's funny, poetic and lyrical at times, hopelessly romantic in every good sense of it, and literally if you want a romcom that's going to make you believe in love again, she's your gal. plus, she truly is for all tastes because she has het love stories(with in side characters one with heavy sapphic rep, one with important achillean rep, one I still dont know but it's about a interracial relationship), she has sapphic books and achillean books. she has standalones, and a duology, and a -verse that includes 4 books of which only two are actually directly correlated. It's truly for everyone and she's also just very sweet and kind as a person. She's also jewish and I'm yet to read a book of hers that doesn't have jewish rep which is something I absolutely love. Truly everything I know about Judaism is from her books and Cyrus in Andi Mack when I was a kid. And as a big girl, she always puts plus-size rep in her books(again, icon) which is so important and so missing. And so so so always done BEAUTIFULLY. I truly believe she's one of the greatest writers I ever encountered. And though I now hate the movie because it seems like it was done as a spit in the eye to the readers of the book, im thankful to who decided to make simon vs into a movie and to the person that revealed to me it was based on a book. Without those two people, I wouldn't have ever found my favourite author of all time.

[@Kamila_Koziol]

I don't think I have such an author now. It used to be Umberto Eco and Terry Pratchett, but they both died. I still instantly buy anything with them that is being published. When it comes to still living authors it's Margaret Atwood's books... just shut up and take my money. I have some others but I mostly stalk their books in the library.
