Melissa Broder recommends
Open Throat (2023)
Henry Hoke
"Open Throat is an instant cult classic and a bloody masterpiece: rhythmically brilliant, heart-wounding, and scathingly funny. I'm in love with a mountain lion and in awe of this book."
Nothing Special (2023)
Nicole Flattery
"There's laughter in the dark and darkness in the laughter in these fabulously astute stories that are at once surreal and more real than reality. Nicole Flattery is so good."
Big Swiss (2023)
Jen Beagin
"Big Swiss is a dark party; a hilarious romp through new age pop psychology, romantic obsession, sapphic acrobatics, dogs, and the desire to end it all . . . I delighted in this cynical, sexy, hopeless, hopeful, Hudson Valley jubilee. Come for the bees, stay for the donkeys!"
