Sleeping in the Sun (2024)
Joanne Howard
"Large and saga-like in scope, and set in 1930s India, Joanne Howard's Sleeping in the Sun delivers a compassionate portrayal of a missionary family as they struggle to navigate the personal and political crosscurrents of enchantment, terror, love, and deceit. What I admire most in her debut novel is the courage with which this writer lifts the masks of disguise from her characters and reveals, as if superimposed on the place itself, that secret, interior world of human emotions."
