Nell Zink recommends
Eurotrash (2024)
Christian Kracht
"There's a refreshing bright moral clarity to Christian Kracht's Eurotrash. Less than eighty years ago, grandpa was enslaving people to death. So when you learn that your share is 14 million Swiss Francs, how do you make it right?"
Reboot (2024)
Justin Taylor
"Justin Taylor is cursed with equal portions of modesty and genius. What inevitably results is a multilayered masterpiece about a paradox."
The Seaplane on Final Approach (2022)
Rebecca Rukeyser
"An age-old story--puppy love meets jaded lust to dance their death spiral inside a young woman's head--told with the shameless authenticity of 2022. I ate it up."
