April 2023 Box
Jennifer Egan
Improvisation
Like we said, 2023 is going to be filled with huge names. They don't get much bigger than this: Jennifer Egan, a Guggenheim Fellow and Andrew Carnegie Award recipient for Manhattan Beach, whose 2011 international bestseller A Visit from the Goon Squad won the Pulitzer Prize, The National Book Critics Circle Award, The Los Angeles Times Book Prize, and was named one of the best books of the decade by Time Magazine and Entertainment Weekly. The Candy House is her follow-up novel to Goon Squad — just released in paperback. As a bonus, we have a second book this month from a star in the making: Daniel Aleman. It's the kind of story that needs to be read, written by an immensely talented author.
