Eladatl

This is a sublimely weird book, less “plot” and more “stream of consciousness”. That may scratch your itch; it sometimes did for me but other times I wished it would get on with it. Definitely only recommended for those into extreme atmospherics (pun not intended…)

Worth noting that the cover (at least of my copy) speaks of the “early 20th century” so I went in expecting steampunk; it’s actually 21st century, ie present day-ish.
