Invisible Cities
Recommended“I would say two different ones. I would say Invisible Cities by Italo Calvino, which is basically every page is a different city and it's an imagined city, they're fantastical cities.”

The Baron in the Trees
Recommended“I'll add one more to the list for people who are looking for something very strange and it's also very short, but I think it's The Baron in the Trees by Italo Calvino, which is about basically a young boy who gets in a fight with his father, comes from this esteemed family, escapes into the tree in his yard,”
