He wrote some excellent short stories. He's the closest I've found to something similar to Borges.

I just started this. The title story is kind of messy (war stuff out a nowhere) but great, the tramp one was a bit eh, but the eye man was cute and the first bit where I got the Borges comparison. Really neat translation too.

Diary Of A Man In Despair is super-interesting

A diary from a far-right monarchist pseudo-Bavarian living under the Nazis, hating Hitler like crazy. Lots of observations on contemporary famous people ("Spengler, you fat sellout fuck")

slaves of solitude
the lonely passion of judith hearne

two similar books about lonely desperate spinsters living in boarding houses in the 40/50's. both are great. slaves i found surprisingly hilarious at times. judith hearne being even more pathetic and pitiful than i could ever imagine.

These are all great.
I'll Add
Jakob Von Gunten by Robert Walser
The Long Ships by Frans G. Bengtsson
The Foundation Pit by Andrey Platonov

Haven't read their Tove Jansson books but I hear they are great. Check them out for Finnish charm.
