Camp Jeff (2024)
Tova Reich
"Moral, mordant, Irresparably torn, Tova Relch is the con-science of the dlaspora-of all diaporas"

Gretel and the Great War (2024)
Adam Ehrlich Sachs
"Adam Ehrlich Sachs makes books that make their own traditions. This is the highest praise I know, for serious."

This Strange Eventful History (2024)
Claire Messud
"A choral mural of sweep and scope that knows just when to render the historical personal, Claire Messud's epic is above all a wise, wary, yet love-struck chronicle of how the selves we strive to make become 'colonized' by family."
