Eric Nguyen recommends
The Road to the Salt Sea (2024)
Samuel Kọláwọlé
"Brutal, vivid, and powerful, The Road to the Salt Sea is a pulsating piece of art that crawls inside you and refuses to let go. Samuel Kolawole is a fearless writer."
The Most Secret Memory of Men (2023)
Mohamed Mbougar Sarr
"Thanks to translator Lara Vergnaud, English-language readers can seamlessly experience Mohamed Mbougar Sarr's pyrotechnic prose. A labyrinth of a novel, The Most Secret Memory of Men is as enthralling as it is thought-provoking. Sarr is a writer that comes along once in a lifetime."
The Sea Elephants (2023)
Shastri Akella
"By turns tender and brutal, The Sea Elephants navigates the tumultuous waters of grief, guilt, and love with grace and precision. Akella has written an exquisite novel destined to be a classic."
