Happy #BookBday to two terrific new novels:
THE FAMILY TABOR by Cherise Wolas
An August 2018 Indie Next pick! Wolas’s new novel is set over the course of a single weekend, as five members of a family confront the lies upon which their lives are built. “Wolas, whose much-acclaimed debut novel, THE RESURRECTION OF JOAN ASHBY, earned countless well-deserved accolades, once again writes with gorgeous intensity about the strata of loving relationships that entwine families in all their messy contradictions that often stubbornly resist transparency, the truth, and resolution. Savor this. ” — Library Journal, starred review
THE MERE WIFE by Maria Dahvana Headley
Two starred reviews! “Headley’s fourth novel is a stunner: a darkly electric reinterpretation of Beowulf that upends its Old English framework to comment on the nature of heroes and how we ‘other’ those different from ourselves. A strange tale told with sharp poetic imagery and mythic fervor, Headley’s novel prompts examination of how people create or become monsters.” — Booklist, starred review
