Surrealism

[close] A group for fans of Mark Z. Danielewski and his works.

[close] This book club is dedicated to people who enjoy surreal and post-modern fiction and would like to explore and read a new title monthly or bi-monthly. When membership gets in the 10-15 range we will start officially choosing/voting on books. Until then, I am going to choose a title and talk to myself. So spare me the trip to Brylin and join.
