How I Won a Nobel Prize (2023)
Julius Taranto

The Kingdoms of Savannah (2022)
George Dawes Green
"I've never read a mystery novel any finer than this one . . . utterly satisfying."
American Wife (2008)
Curtis Sittenfeld
"What a remarkable (and brave) thing: a compassionate, illuminating, and beautifully rendered portrait of a fictional Republican first lady with a life and husband very much like our actual Republican first lady's. Curtis Sittenfeld has written a novel as impressive as it is improbable."
