A lot of Nabokov's work actually.

Nearly all of Wolfe's fiction has unreliable narrators like this.
They're usually not as demented as Den Weer though.

Book of the Old Sun is almost exactly like Peace.

>Book of the Old Sun
What?
But if you meant New Sun, they're leagues apart. Peace is a quiet work of realism largely divorced from the grandiose religiosity of the Book of the New Sun. They both have unreliable narrators, sure, but that's definitely where the similarities end.

I meant Old Sun. Typhon's dream is more or less written in the same style as Weer's memoirs.

Borges
Faulkner
Nabakov a little

New, Long and Short Sun exist. Never heard of Old Sun.

I think he means New Sun. He's confused.

No I'm not. I'm talking about Old Sun damn it.

>>7598820
Maybe we live in different universes; yours is written by Borges, and ours by Faulkner.
