View submission: Best Literary Fiction of 2022 - Voting Thread

I've been saying it since the minute I finished the book: "**Babel**," by RF Kuang, is the best piece of fiction published this year. And, yes, I did mean to put that in literary fiction.

Dang it…want to read this so much, but I have such a large queue and it’s been easier to go through my list by reading books that are 300-400 pages. I’m edging closer to reading it.

I see comparisons to *The Secret History* and *Jonathan Strange & Mr Norell* so my curiosity is definitely piqued.
