Tommy Orange: I’m constantly reading too much at once, and then can never think of the books when asked. Off the top of my head I’d say read Ocean Vuong’s new novel On Earth We’re Briefly Gorgeous, or his poetry collection, Night Sky with Exit Wounds. Also Samanta Schweblin’s Mouthful of Birds. Anything by Valeria Luiselli. Read Terese Mailhot’s Heart Berries. Everything You Know About Indians is Wrong by Paul Chaat Smith. Anything by the poet Mary Ruefle. Anything by Clarice Lispector. Roberto Bolano. Denis Johnson.
