McGlue by Ottessa Moshfegh
(Fence Books, $15.95)Peppered with sea shanties and sailors, McGlue shakes your every certainty about what—and who—is real. The story follows the titular character as he overcomes a hangover and tries to remember whether or not he murdered his best friend. If there’s anything scarier than killing someone you love, it’s not knowing if you did.
