Paul B. Preciado (1970-), but he is not actually a novelist more like a cultural theorist.

For novels I will go for Jonathan Franzen (1959-) (I know, I know, I am trying to read more contemporaneous things now). I haven't read DFW yet.

Which is the writer in the pic of OP?

Also, >>9323102, do you have any personal recommendation by David Eggers? Can you explain why do you like it?

this threads interest me

Wolfgang Koeppen. He wrote one of the essential german novels about live in Germany, post WWII: Pigeons on the Gras. It's a mix of stream of consciousness, greek myth and underage masturbation. 100 short scenes, 30 'protagonists'. Great read (I don't know anything about the quality of the translation though).

Those are two things I like. Time to go on the hunt.

>masturbation scene of a cute girl involves her imagining etheral images of crap floating on the surface of a pond (hint: she is the floating crap)

It's a german kind of feel
