Dagoberto Gilb recommends

Call Her Freedom (2025)
Tara Dorabji
"Call Her Freedom is a mythic tale of one woman's family surviving inside another culture of massive, brutal power. The story parallels conflicts in Guatemala, Nazi Europe, and the Confederate South. Set in South Asia, its prose reads both dreamily faraway and realistically close - a beautiful strength that can only be attributed to Dorabji's impeccable talent."
