Still Life (2024)
Katherine Packert Burke
"A stunning elegy to all the lives we cannot live and a celebration of becoming yourself. Katherine Packert Burke vividly captures the nuance, heartbreak, and wonder of traveling your one path-the torture of what ifs, the deep bodily pleasure of community, and the ongoing adventure of self-knowledge. Throughout?Still Life,?I felt so close to Edith, and I'll be thinking of her for a long, long time."
The Nude (2024)
C Michelle Lindley
"The Nude dives headlong into tense questions about art and ownership and the unanswerable enigma of beauty. Elizabeth's confrontation with the true cost of her museum-world rise, through her sensual and frightening travels in Greece, thrilled me. I could never guess, while reading, what would happen if she acquired her prize. I'll be thinking about this book for a long time."
The Adult (2023)
Bronwyn Fischer
"Bronwyn Fisher's The Adult smolders with barely contained longing. Natalie's voice--restrained, lyric, and precise--transported me back to the exquisite desperation of first love. Fisher's debut novel is like a visit from your younger self--even as you worry about Natalie, you won't be able to look away."
