Authors who write the same book everytime. Think Bernhard, Murakami, Houellebecq, Sebald. Who else is there?

How do we define different books then? Because Joyce writes with a lot of the same elements. There's the unity of setting. The first three books all share characters. The emphasis on linguistic experimentation. Like any good author his books feel the same because he has his style and his preoccupations. I haven't read Williams but McCarthy does too, not really in an overwhelmingly different way than Murakami or Houellebecq.

Dubliners and Finnegans Wake are vastly different books, while all of Berhard novels feel samey. McCarthy too. Child of God and All the Pretty Horses are quite different, or Blood Meridian and Suttree, as opposed to Whatever and Atomised by Houellebecq.
