Ways to Disappear by Idra Novey

 

This is a weird novel that is weird. People do weird things for weird--or at least inscrutable--reasons, even if they're POV characters, so their motivations should arguably be at least somewhat understandable. It's not even that their behaviors seems particularly out of character, there's barely enough information to determine what's in character for these people. Eventually the weird things come to an end, in a way that's kinda abrupt and vague and of course inscrutable. There are at least three POV characters, and weird interpolations that look like dictionary entries--which might plausibly be connected to one of the POV characters being a translator. Plausibly understandable story structures are for lesser novels.
