Clare Pollard recommends
Spoiled Milk (2026)
Avery Curran
"Something wicked oozes through Briarley School for girls. Has the slave trade, spiritualism or sapphic desire unleashed it? Whichever way it's slick and rotten fun. Get ready for your new literary crush."
I Am Agatha (2026)
Nancy Foley
"This tale of an artist in New Mexico is itself a wise and gorgeous work of art. Foley makes us see old age afresh, as a time of passion, risk, and sharp, exposing light."
Ordinary Time (2024)
Cathy Rentzenbrink
"Witty, tender, heartrending. Ordinary Time is about the huge feelings that howl beneath the surface of the everyday. No one has written this astutely about the inner lives of middle-aged women since Barbara Pym."
