And if you need to be further persuaded, this is what Raven Leilani said in her blurb: "Megan Giddings's prose is brimming with wonder. The Women Could Fly is a candid appraisal of grief, inheritance, and the merits of unruliness." https://t.co/IdkvJfs5nw

I'm really excited to talk about On A Woman's Madness with Astrid Roemer next Saturday (3/11). The book is lyrical and longing, and I can't wait for more English-speaking audiences to get a chance to read it. https://t.co/vYG405P5ao

@MMicahJenkins The book my students most wanted to talk about and made them actually feel last semester was Leah Johnson’s Rise to the Sun. It was also the most fun for me to teach! (Although grain of salt this was for a fiction workshop)
