John Barth, "Lost in the Funhouse"#
"Lost in the Funhouse" is John Barth's experimental stories collection (he calls it a cycle), which I found through AI chat "hallucinated" bullshit. It's interesting at times (especially, Ambrose's stories) and inspired me to think about a story where the main character knows he's the narrator of a story. Overall, however, I found it hard to get through and it reminded me of "Naked Lunch," which was a true torture to maul through. But I'm glad I read it.
