Fiction with recursive loop (programming.dev)

submitted 4 months ago by TheV2@programming.dev to c/books@lemmy.world

12 comments fedilink hide all child comments

Is there any kind of fiction where multiple stories are connected in a recursive loop? The connection could be a character who writes or narrates the story. e.g.

story A -> story B
story B -> story C
story C -> story A

Thanks in advance for any help!

You can try 7 1/2 Deaths of Evelyn Hardcastle by Stuart Turton! I really liked that one. It’s more Groundhog Day but with a bit of a twist on each iteration if that makes sense. I don’t want to spoil too much but it was a wild ride putting things together.

I'm not OP, but that one is on my radar, having recently read The Last Murder at the End of the World by the same author. With how much I enjoyed it, I have really high expectations of Evelyn Hardcastle, so it's good to know it's a great one too!

If by any chance you've read both, which did you like more?
