an absolute masterpiece. “It was a passion neither of the mind nor of the flesh; rather, it was a force that comprehended them both, as if they were but the matter of love, it’s specific substance. To a woman or to a poem, it said simply: Look! I am alive. “ @nyrbooks

I loved this book. MEG HOWREY’s novel THEY’RE GOING TO LOVE YOU is a gorgeous, engaging and moving story about art, love, family, identity, life, death and dance

I adored LAST SUMMER IN THE CITY... (wonderfully translated by Howard Curtis). It’s moody, romantic and tragic. And very very beautiful. Camus/Salinger/Fitzgerald vibes... set in Rome and the Eternal City is a character unto itself.

wow. I am speechless... This is an incredibly honest, raw, soulful, courageous and articulate work of art. It is about pain, addiction, trauma, madness, art, childhood, adolescence, parents, children and above everything else love, understanding and forgiveness.

I adored CLEOPATRA AND FRANKENSTEIN by COCO MELLORS!!! This New York story of love, family, passion and art was very hard to put down. And I was sad when it was over. Wished it would go on and on. A truly beautiful novel.

ATTA BOY by CALLY FIEDOREK is a truly great NYC novel. A very perceptive, accurate and imaginative take on our times. She has a brilliant ear for dialogue and her characters are so richly drawn and specific. It’s moving, funny, suspenseful and heart breaking. I turned her pages compulsively
