Why read it?
1 author picked Christie Malry's Own Double-Entry as one of their favorite books. Why do they recommend it?
Probably my favourite book, this is BS Johnson’s most fun novel. It’s about a man who decides the world is in debt to him, and sets out to redress the balance, often murderously.

From David's list on The best books for expanding the mind through pleasure and strangeness.
