Lincoln in the Bardo

Recommended by Kathryn Van Duyne

This book breaks from traditional form and hooked me in like a hungry fish. I swooped through these pages. I’ve never read anything so swiftly. It’s extraordinary, and you’ll be challenged and rewarded and touched meaningfully at the close. One of those authors who gets human nature better than you do.

“This book has a large, talented cast, many of whom are comedians. The readers bring all sorts of performance decisions to the jokes (and the terror, and the sorrow, and the rest of it) and it feels like another dimension is added to the work. Saunders is often so dark, and this book is dark, but the voices help the listener understand light shining through it.”

“This book sits apart from most anything I’ve read. It’s artistic, unraveling, and makes me happy to know novels like this exist.”
