Pixel Flesh
Agustin Fernandez Mallo
I really dug Agustín Fernández Mallo's Pixel Flesh (translated by Zachary Rockwell Ludington, published by @CardboardHouseP), a sort of mirror maze of literary and pop culture references. Author of the Nocilla Trilogy, this was my intro to his work: https://t.co/rWRKkN76Iv

Wild Swims: Stories
Dorthe Nors
I'm such a fan of the work of Dorthe Nors (@DortheNors) and this week her book Wild Swims was published in English (translated by Misha Hoekstra @mishap13). Her story "The Freezer Chest" is so quietly haunting & will stay with me for life: https://t.co/eW2aYu72HN https://t.co/PH4nc889WV

The Swamp
Yoshiharu Tsuge
I totally loved The Swamp by Yoshiharu Tsuge (born 1937). Tsuge was the first manga artist to put his character’s internal conflicts at the center of his stories. The Swamp is the beginning in an already-gorgeous Tsuge series coming from @DandQ. Translated by Ryan Holmberg. https://t.co/y2Zj4axoxL
