Booklist: 10 Experimental Novels

I see youAs Emily Temple of Flavorwire tells us, September 9th marked “the US publication of Eimear McBride’s A Girl Is a Half-Formed Thing.”  Temple describes the book as “a highly experimental, Joycean novel” – experimental meaning that the book emphasizes innovation, especially when it comes to writing technique.  Temple tells us that, while the book is more difficult to read, it is worth the extra effort, and the book has won numerous awards.  Once you’ve wrapped your head around the book, she gives us a list of ten more experimental books to try.  Tell us what you think!
