Dorothy Richardson's "Pilgrimage" is a 13-novel narrative sequence, printed in four volumes by Virago. Can I include all four, or should I just use the first as a stand-in?

thank you, aubrey! don't know why i was under that impression. corrected!
Boyle's never really struck me as an experimental writer. She's good and interesting, but not pushing that envelope.
well shoot. all i had was the size & new directions association. still want to read boyle, though.

Not that that matters much. That she was talented and isn't the usual white male warrants a good look. Nau excuse me as I go read more books written by dead white men (I can't help, for the moment, what looks and interesting, nor who it was that wrote it).
Wonderful list; I've only read one of these, have a few on my shelves. I now have the rest on my list!
I didn't care for it but I think The End of Mr. Y qualifies. It's more experimental than her PopCo. I'm not sure if Sadie Smith's NW has the size, or how much it matters, but it's experimental.
thanks, paul, samadrita & brian!

If you wanna include omnibuses, how's about Jean Rhys: The Complete Novels which I've been eye'ing at The Village Bookshop.
YES thank you! & i should add jane bowles' collected works, too
nonfiction experiments with language, absolutely. poetry is tricky cause i feel like nearly all poetry could count, but if it's distinctly experimental, go ahead!
