Collections
Margot Livesey recommends
Blood (2001) Patricia Traxler "With her stunning first novel, Blood, Patricia Traxler plunges the reader into a world both familiar and eerie. Seldom have the twin obsessions of love and art been more vividly or intelligently portrayed. What an elegant, suspenseful, and steamy debut." | Bulletproof Girl (2004) Quinn Dalton "Quinn Dalton is that rare being, a writer who combines fierce passion and keen intelligence. Both are amply present in the far-ranging stories of this splendid collection." | Anything You Say Can and Will Be Used Against You (2004) Laurie Lynn Drummond "Brilliant." | |
Resurrection (2006) Tucker Malarkey "An irresistible heroine... an immensely suspenseful novel." | London Is the Best City in America (2006) Laura Dave "With its suspenseful plot, endearing heroine and vivid prose, Laura Dave's London is the Best City in America is an immensely appealing novel. A sparkling debut." | The Dressmaker (2007) Elizabeth Birkelund Oberbeck " Utterly irresistible ... The Dressmaker is a delight." | |
The Quickening (2010) Michelle Hoover "A fully realized, sensually vivid, psychologically intelligent novel that is hard to believe is a debut, but it is a sparkling one." | Commuters (2010) Emily Gray Tedrowe "Tedrowe explores the reconfigurations of a family and the strange alliances that can occur between young and old, love and work. A deeply satisfying debut." | Cold Snap: Bulgaria Stories (2010) Cynthia Morrison Phoel "Phoel transports us to a country where jobs are scarce and men are more in love with their satellite dishes than their wives. Old Mountain is not an easy place to live, but these stories, with their surprising leaps of empathy, make it a pleasure to visit." | |
In Envy Country (2010) Joan Frank "A worldly collection in all the best ways; a writer of unusual wit, sophistication, and psychological insight; reading these pages is a pleasure." | Broken Irish (2011) Edward J Delaney "In Edward J. Delaney's South Boston little is lost, nothing forgotten. Old sins, old wounds haunt his characters, young and old, and reverberate throughout his wonderfully complicated plot. Broken Irish is an enthralling, satisfying novel." | Aftermath (2011) Scott Nadelson "Whether he’s describing a married couple experimenting with trial separation or a young woman dealing with her father’s cancer, Scott Nadelson writes brilliantly about the many forms of ambivalence that love can take. His characters, of all ages, are wonderfully vivid. Aftermath is a sophisticated, emotionally complicated collection with an exhilarating undercurrent of danger." | |
The Architect of Flowers (2011) William Lychack "Precise, exhilarating, sometimes wonderfully funny and always beautiful." |
