1. The Moose Paradox by Antti Tuomainen
2. Cloud Cuckoo Land by Anthony Doerr
3. French Braid by Anne Tyler
4. The Shell Collector by Anthony Doerr
5. Mislaid by Nell Zink
6. for thy great pain have mercy on my little pain by Victoria Mackenzie
7. Infinite Ground by Martin MacInnes
Apparently starting with a semi-retired, widowed 'inspector' seeking to trace a missing person, it seems to me that this is about extreme grief and its effect on sanity, while questioning the relationship between consciousness and external reality. I felt the influence of Kafka, which was for me less successful than the passages which invoked the nature of dreams. Interesting, though.
