The mechanization of agriculture linked to mechanized slaughter in the 20th Century might remind you of a major trope in "Against the Day".

It did me, although the reminding came in reverse order. 

This, and Coetze's first novel, are two reasons why I suspect OBA and Coetze might talk to each other. Relative reclsuivity is a third. Mutual genius is a fourth.
