There's a thread about how people find new books, and one of my favorite ways to find things to read was browsing comments from the weekly 'What are you reading' threads in r/truelit and r/books. So what is Lemmy reading?

I'm finishing The Passenger, and about to jump into John Williams' Stoner. Excited to see what is next!

Nabokov's Ada, or Ardor. As usual, I'm also slowly making my way through Joyce's Finnegans Wake in parallel to whatever else I'm reading.

A random question: is anybody aware of active modern writers with mastery of style comparable to Nabokov's?
