(5/20/2020)
Christina Dalcher's Master Class shows America sleepwalking into a perfectionist eventuality not dissimilar to the one in Aldous Huxley's dystopian classic Brave New World. The story of Elena's journey confidently functions as both an assured dystopian thriller and a meticulously constructed socio-political cautionary tale. Fans of The Handmaid's Tale, and of dystopian fiction gene

A Dredging in Swann: The Seb Creek Mysteries #1
by Tim Garvin
(2/19/2020)
Garvin's novel is an assured crime story that ticks the right genre boxes without ever feeling manufactured. Swamp noir vibes blend with the standard detective novel or whodunnit, as the parallel investigations involving Seb Creek and the FBI become inextricably entangled. The novel is fun, fluid and packed full of smart dialogue.

The Starless Sea
by Erin Morgenstern
(1/8/2020)
Morgenstern's novel—littered with knowing references to a slew of beloved storytellers such as Maurice Sendak, C.S. Lewis, Susanna Clarke and Raymond Chandler—is a story lover's utopia, a joyful celebration of reading and language, an unconventional meta-confection as enigmatic as it is enthralling.

Marley
by Jon Clinch
(10/16/2019)
Clinch expertly cultivates Marley's character, elaborating the origins of one of English literature's most famous misers with forensic precision. Like the best of Dickens, Marley works well as populist entertainment and layered social commentary.
