I have a ton that I really love - Twisted Spoon Press, Wakefield Press, Peirene Press, Green Integer, Dalkey Archive, Dedalus, Exact Change, Atlas Press, Archipelago Books, etc. Not sure I could pick one favorite.

I don't think any of them are relevant to what you're trying to do though OP. No fine presses and not all of them have very large catalogs. They definitely tend to publish works of quality, though the physical book may not always be great/lasting.

Alright then! How did you like those two? You should try out more by Hrabal if you like Too Loud a Solitude, as a lot of his other works are pretty short too. Closely Watched Trains and Dancing Lessons for the Advanced in Age are two I recommend. Otherwise, here are some randoms I enjoyed and read in one afternoon:

The Circus of Dr. Lao by Charles Finney
In Praise of Shadows by Junichiro Tanizaki
The Chess Master by Ah Cheng
Patriotism by Yukio Mishima
The House of Illnesses by Unica Zurn
The Hunting Gun by Inoue Yasushi
An Attempt at Exhausting a Place in Paris by Georges Perec
The Necrophiliac by Gabrielle Wittkop
The Hour of the Star by Clarice Lispector
The Invention of Morel by Adolfo Bioy Casares
The Feverhead by Wolfgang Bauer

Hah, yeah, I love the design on Wakefield Press' covers. None of the others are quite that wut, but they're all really sleek.
