Koan Khmer
A powerful debut novel about war, immigration, and home
Tell Me
Queer stories about love, loneliness, the surreal, and the self
The Curators
Violence haunts 1915 Atlanta and so does the golem a group of girls creates
Sing, I
Inside Half Moon Bay, a sparkling California coastal town, Ester Prynn is dulled and diminished by struggles with work, money, marriage, her senile father, a troubled teenage son, and old guilt she can’t assuage. When a masked gunman robs the convenience store where Ester works, he upends her fraught life and propels her toward passions buried, like singing; desires discovered, like a same-sex infatuation; and wrongs righted, like bringing the violent assailant to justice. But as the armed robber commits new crimes and continues to evade capture, the trauma from the holdup climbs, threatening Ester’s newfound delights and longings and forcing her to contend with her burning regrets and what-ifs. In the reckoning between Ester and these growing, molten upsets, she’s faced with enormous choices and must determine what and who can bring her to her best life.
A Small Apocalypse
A gorgeously wrought queer exploration of what it means to exist in the in-between
The Place of the White Heron
This novel is a parable for the twenty-first century, an allegory of the violence, racism, and international tensions between the United States and México.
Dare the Sea
Acclaimed fiction writer Ali Hosseini’s debut short-story collection in English explores Iran’s landscape, its culture, and the undercurrent of change affecting its people—both in Iran and the United States.
As If She Had a Say
As If She Had a Say, the second story collection from Jennifer Fliss, uses an absurdist lens to showcase characters—predominantly women—plumbing their resources in the face of misogyny, abuse, and grief.
Direct Sunlight
The twelve stories in Direct Sunlight, award-winning author Christine Sneed’s latest, are inspired by the memorable strangeness of everyday life. The characters in these topically diverse tales experience events that bring the terms of their day-to-day lives and their relationships into focus in a way hitherto foreign to them.
The Archivists
The characters in the twelve stories in The Archivists are everyday people, but when private losses or the shocks of history set their worlds reeling, they find connection and liberation in surprising, buoyant ways.
