I Am Agatha (2026)
Nancy Foley
"To write in the style of a painter is no small feat. When that artist is Agnes Martin, it is something of a miracle. Nancy Foley's exacting and rhythmic prose delivers a marvel of precision and unexpected joy. I Am Agatha masterfully demonstrates the quiet power of lines - drawn, written, and crossed."
