William Giraldi recommends
Sidle Creek (2023)
Jolene McIlwain
"Heir to the immortal ruralists of the American short story's halcyon era, Jolene McIlwain crafts fiction so close to the bone, with such an unflinching fearlessness of the soul's dark night, that she will restore your faith in what the short story can achieve in the hands of a born expert. Sidle Creek is a debut worthy of alignment with the best of Dorothy Allison and Daniel Woodrell."
The Lost Country (2018)
William Gay
"William Gay's The Lost Country lands like a shimmering gift from the beyond. For those of us who cherish and honor Gay's tremendous talent, his bold method of seeing the waste and wonder we are, this posthumous novel is a reminder of what we miss: the language pitched toward the sublime, his men and women grappling for redemption in a world that has damned them, his understanding of grace in the presence of human badness. When Gay died too soon, we lost much, but The Lost Country gives a piece of him back to us."
