Gayle Brandeis recommends
The Pale Flesh of Wood (2025)
Elizabeth A Tucker
"The Pale Flesh of Wood is epic and intimate all at once, both sweeping and deep. As its title suggests, this novel sees beneath the surface of things, taps the lifeblood pulsing inside families and communities and the natural world. Elizabeth A. Tucker has crafted a masterpiece - I can't wait to see what this gifted author will write next!"
Josie and Vic (2023)
Debra Thomas
"Debra Thomas is a magician. Her artistry and empathy and gentle humor allow Josie and Vic, a novel grounded in the deepest of grief, to shine with hope, with compassion, with the reminder that connection and service offer us paths toward healing. An unforgettable, heart-filled, heart-filling novel."
Five-Part Invention (2022)
Andrea J Buchanan
"As its title suggests, Five-Part Invention is both complex and inventive, a symphonic exploration of identity, family, secrets, and art, a novel that crescendos like the most soul-stirring music. A piano teacher tells one of the characters, 'You must have both intention and technique, ' and Andrea J. Buchanan displays both in abundance here. This novel is an epic, ambitious composition, crafted with tremendous beauty and dexterity and heart. A masterpiece."
