George Saunders's Sea Oak is weird, Amy Bender has some weird ones, what about John Barth's Night Sea Journey from Lost in the Funhouse - a story from the pov of a sperm is pretty weird.....

It makes me want to go down to our storage unit and dig through all our books. There must be some Haruki Murakami stories that fit the bill.
