Pip Adam recommends
Eat and Get Gas (2023)
Jodi Wright
"Eat and Get Gas is a compelling and affecting read that highlights experiences I haven't often seen in fiction. This masterful study of family acts as a microcosm of Vietnam War-era America and expresses extremely well the way the trauma of this war reverberates deeply and widely. The book hums with a deep sense of love, in complicated and sometimes painful situations, and describes a group of people loving each other in ways that are complicated and poignant."
The Swimmers (2022)
Chloe Lane
"The Swimmers has the kind of intelligent and beautiful quiet that explodes a brightness deep within the reader... I can't remember the last time I read a more generous book about care, courage, and figuring it out."
The Absolute Book (2019)
Elizabeth Knox
"The master is present. To read Knox on such a huge canvas—to be immersed in her worlds, wrapped in her intelligence and craft so completely—is an experience not be missed. Lessing, Le Guin, Knox—books where the best hearts meet the best minds meet the best imaginations are few and far between. The Absolute Book is a triumph of fantasy grounded in the reality and challenges of the moment we live in."
