As a kid I read a book about a school with 30 rooms built sideways, so an oopsie tower, where each chapter is about a student or the teacher.
Sammy, the odd student from chapter 14, is a dead rat in many raincoats, and being a dead rat, Sammy is thrown in the trash.
Twilight is weirder than this?
What about a sentient bowl of petunias that is falling to its "death", again, and is the reincarnation of a rabbit, whale, fly, and cow? Or an android monk believing everything was the same shade of pink, making it too early to move from the spot it was on for fear of falling off a cliff, so it sat on the back of the (manufactured, organic) horse it was riding?
Yes, there can be multiple books that are weird or have weird stories. It doesn't have the be the weirdest one to still be weird.
Hey, Sideways Stories From Wayside School is great! And weird, but good weird. Twilight was the first thing I thought of when the COVID toilet paper crisis hit.
I loved those books as a kid! Probably my introduction to surrealism
Haruki Murakami would approve
Way to sideline things.
