Robin MacArthur recommends
The Singer Sisters (2024)
Sarah Seltzer
"What a pleasure to read this book! A delightful journey through the folk and rock scenes from the 60s through the early aughts, told through the kaleidoscopic voices of one family. I loved dipping down into the early folk scenes of Cambridge and New York, the feminist rock of the 90s, the pop industry of the 2000s, and seeing how a family can be torn apart, and stitched back together, via the miracle of song."
Out of Esau (2022)
Michelle Webster-Hein
"Out of Esau is a wonder of a novel. I fell in love with these characters and found myself continuously astonished by the depth and range of Michelle Webster Hein's emotional intelligence, lyric touch, and ability to fully inhabit the tender bodies of others. An unflinching look at poverty, place, generational trauma, resiliency, faith, spirit, and love, these pages radiate with compassion and generosity, and shimmer with moments of beauty and insight. Out of Esau is a propulsive and masterfully spun web, one I can't wait to gift again and again."
The Treehouse on Dog River Road (2022)
Catherine Drake
"I loved so many of the characters in this book, especially all the strong women who are dedicated to their careers, their friendships, their families, and their lovers. Oh, and the kids - I loved the kids!"
