I've never read anything that was published in the 21st century. What would lit recommend as the very best of the last few years?
Pic related, I googled 'best novel of 2015' and everything looks like shit to me.

The Vorrh
House of Leaves

I used to think that a book being written 15 years earlier gave it better value too but hey, today's books are tomorrow's classics.

Is Cow Country actually good or just a meme?
Austerlitz, Sebald
The Human Stain, Roth
The Infatuations, Marias
From 2015, A Brief History of Seven Killings and City on Fire are supposed to be well worth reading.
