a gripping, Surrealist portrait of a toxic sibling relationship…Madievsky’s lyrical-prose style and arresting imagery create a book that is far more than an everyday romp through the Los Angeles underbelly..

Housemates

Emma Copley Eisenberg
Isle McElroyIsle McElroy

Eisenberg’s debut novel, Housemates, proves she’s just as skilled a fiction writer as she is a journalist. Here, Eisenberg deftly reimagines and queers the road-trip novel by focusing on the lives of two young artists coming to terms with how they relate to themselves and to art.

Delia Cai’s debut, Central Places, might appear to be a departure from her work as a senior correspondent at Vanity Fair, but the novel contains the very wit and insight that makes Cai such a talented journalist.
