Jeff’s comments from the Listomania group.

Dennis Cooper put together a list of his favorite novels, poetry collections, and non-fiction books for 2013 -- as well as films, albums, and art exhibits -- over at his blog. It's well worth a read.

Great to see all these lists. Very inspiring! Here are the best books I read in 2013 that were published in years past:

OLD MASTERS by Thomas Bernhard

OUTER DARK by Cormac McCarthy

GARDEN, ASHES by Danilo Kis

THE LAST DAYS by Raymond Queneau

AUTOBIOGRAPHY OF RED by Anne Carson

ANGELS by Denis Johnson

IMAGINATIVE QUALITIES OF ACTUAL THINGS by Gilbert Sorrentino

THE BRIDGES by Tarjei Vesaas

HIGH-RISE by J.G. Ballard

RECOLLECTIONS OF THE GOLDEN TRIANGLE by Alain Robbe-Grillet

Here's a wide-ranging list by Verso -- of books they love but didn't publish: http://www.versobooks.com/blogs/1206-...

Whoops - yeah, should've mentioned that the uncensored Death Grips cover will greet you as you load the page! NSFW and pretty startling. Great list, tho.
