I gave a copy of Invisible Cities to a colleague who was leaving, as he's a bit of a flâneur type. I thought he might find it interesting, but I've never actually read it myself, so I'm about to find out if it was a terrible choice or not! I'm hoping it's good. Getting psychogeography/hauntology vibes from it, and that's a thing I've been enjoying lately, so we'll see.

Talking psychogeography, and looking at that list, have you read The city and the city? Theres a few weird fiction books that use alternative geography as a crucial part of the story. Its something I love and China Miéville is one of may favourites. Also Neil Gaiman and recently as an easy read The rivers of London series.

Id be interested in what you think of invisible cities. I had to read it at uni, and found it a chore, however I have had it recommended to me several times for a re-read. Its sitting in my to read pile but keeps getting shunted down.
