5. The Mothers by Brit Bennett
5.布雷特·班尼特:《母亲们》
Bennett’s stellar debut, The Mothers, brings us into the world of a black church community in California, where three teenagers — Nadia, Aubrey, and Luke — navigate love and loss and consequences, all while being observed and commented on by a chorus of church mothers. Graceful, wise, and affecting, The Mothers is a beautiful exploration of community, and how its ties can both constrain and comfort.
本书是班尼特的首部著作,将读者带入了加利福尼亚的一个黑人教堂社区的世界,在那里有三个年轻人——纳蒂亚、奥布雷和卢克——他们在爱与迷失中穿行,这些都被教堂合唱队中的母亲们看在眼里并给出评论。这些母亲们优雅、智慧、有爱,展现了这个集体的美丽以及如何将克制与安慰结合在一起。
6. Imagine Me Gone by Adam Haslett
6.亚当·哈撒特:《想象我已离去》
Imagine Me Gone is the story of a family and its legacy of mental illness, first in the father, then in the eldest son. While Haslett is unflinching when it comes to the devastating toll that depression and anxiety can take on a person and their family, this coexists — and is inextricable from — his portrait of an unforgettable, frustrating, loving family.
