The Nursery (2023)
Szilvia Molnar
"Szilvia Molnar's debut is a fierce psychological novel of one woman trying to reconcile the competing languages of mind and body after giving birth. Like Tim O'Brien and Sheila Heti, The Nursery is powered by the shape of Molnar's imagination but also the brutal truth of personal experience, proving to us that there is no way to tell a true birth story."
