Books
Hollow (Brian Catling)
(DISCLAIMER! I'm about halfway through this book and I haven't finished it yet) Centering on three storylines that unfold after the death of a being called the Oracle (which belonged to a group called the High Church), this book has some of the thickest prose I've read. Extremely surreal and amazing imagery. The tone is dark and strange, and many elements of this book are eccentric. I love it so much. Some people describe it as like reading a Hieronymous Bosch painting and I couldn't agree more.
The Unworthy (Agustina Bazterrica)
This novel uses beautiful, abstract prose to explore the idea of a woman stuck in a cultish convent after the end of the world. It's a brutal read and I highly recommend it if you're looking for something short.
Dune (Frank Herbert)
This is a layered read. The world of Dune is evokative and I found all of the plans within plans within plans to be extremely gripping. I love what this book has to say about the nature of power as well as peoples' relationship to it insofar as the way its used to exploit everything around them.
Movies
No Country for Old Men (2007)
This is one of the most tense movies I have ever seen. It barely has a score and the way that violence feels like its own force of nature here is remarkable, not to mention Javier Bardem's standout performance as Anton Chigurh. This is one of my favorite movies.
