I just wrote a blog post about “what to read after you’ve read Lovecraft Country” that goes into some detail on this subject:

The short version is that I think The Mirage is the closest match in terms of both style and content, followed (in different ways) by 88 Names and Set This House in Order, while Bad Monkeys, SG&E, and Fool on the Hill are farther out on the Matt Ruff spectrum.

Hi Mark, by now we are (unfortunately) used to gender-swapping when it comes to movie or TV show adaptations of books. Usually it's the bright, smart, funny and/or strong girl/woman that is turned into a boy/man. This time around, Horace has been gender-swapped into Diana. How do you feel about that? What was the thought process behind it and do you think the character suffered or benefited from it?
