Deb Olin Unferth - Vacation
M.T. Anderson - The Astonishing Life of Octavian Nothing, Traitor to the Nation, Volume II: The Kingdom of the Waves
Deb Olin Unferth’s first book of short stories, Minor Robberies, was included in a shared collection and hers was the voice that stood out. Vacation, her debut novel from McSweeney’s Books, has been described as “wonderfully unsettling” and compared with the post-realist work of Chris Adrian.
Cambridge-based young adult fiction superstar M.T. Anderson (Feed, Thirsty) won the National Book Award for the first volume of The Astonishing Life of Octavian Nothing, putting to rest his assessment of it as a work that missed its audience by two centuries. Volume II revisits the young violinist and polyglot as he fights in the Revolutionary War.
