Tess Gunty recommends
Blue Light Hours (2024)
Bruna Dantas Lobato
"Blue Light Hours is a spellbinding meditation on distance and intimacy, holding close and letting go. In attentive linguistic brush strokes, Bruna Dantas Lobato offers a tender and dynamic portrait of the mutual care between a mother and a daughter as they navigate life apart. Resplendent."
All the World Beside (2024)
Garrard Conley
"In this accomplishment of breathtaking prose, expert pacing, and extraordinary psychological intelligence, Conley presents a world as it was, as it is, and as it could be. A triumph."
Wandering Stars (2024)
Tommy Orange
"Here is something rare: a novel as generous as it is genius. The care coursing through these pages - care for people, care for art, care for truth - is nothing short of radical. Orange writes with a historian's attention to detail and a poet's attention to language, animating every passage with an energy that only he can conjure, transfixing and transforming. Wandering Stars is not just a book; it is a creature made of song and blood, multitudinous and infinite. This novel is alive."
