Nina Shope recommends
Dioramas (2023)
Blair Austin
"Dioramas immerses the reader in the most minute details of a vanished and preserved world - the sheen on the feathers of a theen finch, the sheer filament which war mosquitoes deployed to stitch shut wounds, the viscosity of varnish. Yet it does not hesitate to explore the macrocosm, to encompass it from afar within the bird's-eye-view. In lyrical, meticulous prose, this novel causes us to question the very nature of subject and object, and to contemplate our own vanishing world at a time when our future is far from certain."
