"My Mother by Jamaica Kincaid (1978)- A strange series of little flash pieces, describing a woman and her mother, who is a god or a monster, her tormentor or herself.

Sandkings by GRRM (1979)- A story about a man who acquires some "pets" to worship him and war for him, when it all goes wrong. This was excellent."

Gene Wolfe
“... all the outpourings of the English-speaking presses, accumulated and preserved in a pickle of democracy, so that classics stood on the same shelf with books that, though they deserved to be remembered, were not; and these with books justly forgotten; and others that ought never to have seen the light of print.”
Gene Wolfe, Peace

“One has serious reason to doubt one is as sane as one had hoped.”
John Gardner

Jorge Luis Borges
“This Citybis so horrible that its mere existence and perdurance, though in the midst of a secret desert, contaminates the past and the future and in some way even jeopardizes the stars. As long as it lasts, no one in the world can be strong or happy.”
Jorge Luis Borges, Labyrinths: Selected Stories & Other Writings

Jorge Luis Borges
“The fact is that every writer *creates* his own precursors. His work modifies our perception of the past, as it will modify the future.”
Jorge Luis Borges, Labyrinths: Selected Stories & Other Writings

Angela Carter
“I was a young girl, a virgin, and therefore men denied me rationality just as they denied it to all those who were not exactly like themselves, in all their unreason. If I could see not one single soul in that wilderness of desolation all around me, then the six of us-mounts and riders both-could boast amongst us not one soul, either, since all the best religions in the world state categorically that not beasts nor women were equipped with the flimsy, insubstantial things when the good Lord opened the gates of Eden and let Eve and her familiars tumble out. Understand, then, that though I would not say I privately engaged in metaphysical speculation as we rode through the reedy approaches to the river, I certainly meditated on the nature of my own state, how I had been bought and sold, passed from hand to hand. That clockwork girl who powdered my cheeks for me; had I not been allotted only the same kind of imitative life amongst men that the doll-maker had given her?”
Angela Carter
