DFW's books, stories, and essays are a lot like In the Aeroplane over the sea.

I totally disagree with this statement

here's a list of books jeff actually recommended once for an event. https://www.atpfestival.com/events/jeffmangum/view/bookclubjeff
not much literature to be found, though. He also talks about books rarely on his radio show(which he did with an alternate identity, but I think we can safely assume he actually likes the books he mentioned there. Will be difficult to listen to the hundreds of hours and find the few mentions though. I listened long ago, but don't recall anything.

JEFF MANGUM HAS A FUCKING RADIO SHOW?
>>8420359
he did an anonymous radio show near new york a long time ago. Went by the name Jefferson, and when he was "found out" he disappeared. It was during his total lockdown phase of life where he didn't want any public attention. It is still preserved online. very little talking - mostly just weird noises, jazz, and classical music.

has some of the shows and "playlists". Sadly a few of the shows seem to be lost to the internet, because that's not a comprehensive list, and WFMU no longer has an archive for it.

The Soul is not a smithy
Incarnations of burnt children
Church not made with hands
and Always Overhead
are all more like what you're looking for.
