Tammy Armstrong recommends
The Left and the Lucky (2026)
Willy Vlautin
"The Left and the Lucky is a gem of a story filled with quiet misfits, miscreants, and the misunderstood, each, in their own way, keeping hope alive and the small wins counted. Willy Vlautin's understanding of masculinity, grief, and the bonds found families forge is palpable. Deeply forgiving and memorable, Vlautin is a true chronicler of the human heart."
