Girl in the Making
‘Devastating’ Anne Enright ‘Beautiful’ Louise Nealon 'Magnificent' Aingeala Flannery 'Masterful' Kathleen MacMahon Jean Kennedy is a gentle, perceptive girl growing up in a very strange world: suburban Dublin in the 1970s and '80s. In the company of her mother, her Aunty Ida, and her little brother Baby John F., Jean experiences love and joy. But home is not a safe place, and Jean is unequal and unprotected. When she speaks just one small part of the truth, she must quickly learn to navigate the dangers and possibilities of a world she scarcely understands. Jean’s hypnotic, unsparing and ultimately hopeful voice captures the dreams and terrors of girlhood in a brutally hypocritical world, and offers glimpses of a better life. Through it all, Jean’s voice pulsates with insight and passion. Girl in the Making is a deeply moving, propulsive coming-of-age story from a major new talent.

A Mage in Summer
Poetry. Fiction. Literary Nonfiction. Hybrid Genre. Translated by Anna Fitzgerald. In this, the most recent of Olivier Cadiot's visionary works to be translated, an unnamed protagonist, a mage, reflects on his own past and on history and just about everything else in a meditation set in motion by a photograph by Nan Goldin. In a narrative that transcends chronology and genre, Cadiot writes at the limit of prose, using photographic images to punctuate the text and the fleeting imagery of poetry to move through history and mythology. "Olivier Cadiot dances on a not-so-fine line between patter, satire, stream of consciousness, social commentary, poetry, prose, meditation, magic, performance, essay, comedy, melodrama, soliloquy, mania, dialectic, sublimity, tragedy. A MAGE IN SUMMER does delight in voices."--Charles Bernstein
