Salvage the Bones by Jesmyn Ward was a pretty charming neo-Faulknerian work. Don’t really read that much modern literature though, although from (well-read) people who do whom I’ve talked with, they say The Goldfinch and The Underground Railroad are pretty good.

I have Sing, Unburied, Sing which I plan to read soon, flipped through it and I like her writing style if nothing else. Excited to read it, Faulkner's one of my favorites so that's good to hear.

I know some good recent poetry books I would definitely recommend:

Vivas To Those Who Have Failed (Martin Espada)
When My Brother Was An Aztec (Natalie Diaz)
House of Lords and Commons (Ishion Hutchinson)
