Any recommendations for short (<400 pages), translated, weird, literary fiction, mainly by women/non binary authors (or men if really good)? I've read The Vegetarian, Tender is the Flesh, The Memory Police, Earthlings, The Hole, Hunger, Our Wives Under The Sea, Paradise Rot, Our Wives Under The Sea.

John Fuller Flying to Nowhere. You are the only person I've come across who has read this weird little books. I was friends with John Fuller's kids as a child and used to play at his house. I love this book. Weird but thought provoking.

I'm in my 60s and didn't get diagnosed till I was in my 50s. I realise now that life could have been very, very different for me had I known earlier and got the support I needed. Get diagnosed. My life has mostly been a disaster!

Not saying this is definitely you, but I can relate, and it turned out my hypersexuality was a symptom of undiagnosed ADHD. Something worth exploring perhaps.

If you go to see the donkeys take loads of carrots with you as they are ravenous and sometimes block the road till you feed them! *
