Steven Price recommends
The Other Valley (2024)
Scott Alexander Howard
"eeply moving, gorgeously rendered, Scott Alexander Howard's The Other Valley is a powerful meditation on memory, and grief, and the possibility of real connection, even across time itself. Wonderful."
The Good German (2020)
Dennis Bock
"Absorbing and disturbing, intimate and sad, Dennis Bock's The Good German imagines an alternate history of World War Two that is no less savage for not being true. In young William Teufel, Bock gives us a character of melancholy complexity, a boy caught between loyalties, whose world is being unmade even as he struggles to find his place within it. This is a startling novel."
Deep River Night (2018)
Patrick Lane
"Ablaze with a savage compassion, Deep River Night is a vast, sweeping novel of war, loss, violence, and forgiveness. This is Patrick Lane’s song of experience, written in a prose of shadow and light, exquisite as an ink painting, exploring the ways the past will not leave us alone. It is a gorgeous, furious achievement, a work of art of the highest order."
