A book that I'm currently rereading and really enjoy for its style and tone is: Notes of a Dirty Old Man (1969). There's a lot to say about Charles Bukowski, but what I love most is his gritty, life-worn style, very raw and cutting in the legacy of Louis Ferdinand Celine

Journey to the End of the Night is a classic. And Mort a Credit is brutal.

Oh !!! 😍 A true connoisseur. Indeed, it's a classic, but like many classics, they are sometimes a bit forgotten. "Mort à Crédit" is truly a masterpiece in my opinion, both in terms of style and form. I'm fortunate to be French, so I can read it in its original language, which is quite enjoyable.

I am not French but I did read them both in French. 😄 IMHO there’s a straight line between Huckleberry Finn to Mort a Credit to Naked Lunch and Slaughterhouse 5.

Congrats ! French is a truly difficult language 🥵 I would be curious to learn more about the connection you make between these works! I had never thought about it, but it deserves to be explored 🥰
