Endpapers (2023)
Jennifer Savran Kelly
"Endpapers is a richly imagined and moving novel about identity, desire, and art. Its characters are believable and engaging, its plot intriguing, but just as important is its urgent subtext, a plea for humans to break free from constricting labels and instead behold each other in all their thorny, unpredictable individuality; to love complexity and uncertainty, rather than ideology and order. This just might be the most urgent issue of our time, and Endpapers tackles it with energy and - that most apropos weapon - subtlety."

Fractures (2013)
Lamar Herrin
"The best literary fiction is often about families, and Lamar Herrin has always written superbly about them. Throughout his career, Herrin's insights into the complex emotional transactions of family life have just kept getting deeper. Fractures is his best novel; an aching, beautiful book."
