Kairos
Ice-pick precise and gorgeously written, if sometimes freighted too heavily with narrative, this expertly translated work offers insight into the personal and the political for astute readers.
PREMIUM
Go, Went, Gone
Occasionally slow-moving but a stunning and intimate look into the refugee crisis; refreshingly, the characters don't finally embrace sentimentally but inch toward understanding.
PREMIUM
The End of Days
Entrenched in the history of eastern Europe, and recalling Kate Atkinson's Life After Life, this novel shows how the vagaries of time and place influence the smallest of lives in unpredictable ways. For readers who appreciate an imaginative tour through political and social history.

Visitation
In personalizing historical events, Erpenbeck (The Old Child & Other Stories) introduces themes reminiscent of some of W.G. Sebald's novels, especially The Emigrants, but her detailed, dreamy descriptions are more poetry than prose, full of repetitions that evoke the polishing of fine handiwork. Highly recommended.
