Finished a bunch of Flann O'Brien's novels and loved them. Looking for some more work with that level of strangeness and eccentricity to them. Any similar recommendations?

>Prose - 7.5
Able to write it well, the language used by the policemen in the Third Policemen is hilarious. As well as the variety in At Swim Two-Birds. However, at times his writing can be a bit muddled and confusing.
>Narrative - 7.5
The Third Policeman and half his works are pretty straight forward narratives, nothing remarkable, although entertaining. He gets most of his points for At Swim Two-Birds which is just insane genius.
>Ideas - 8
His ideas make his work, half the time they're not anything awe-inspiring or revealing, just bizarre and memorable.
