Taking a personal approach to the subject matter, Timothy Gray reads criticism and listens to music as though rock n roll not only explains American culture, but also shores up his life.

Of This New World by Allegra Hyde
Allegra Hyde’s debut story collection, Of This New World, offers a menagerie of utopias: real, imagined, and lost. Starting with the Garden of Eden and ending in a Mars colony, the stories wrestle with conflicts of idealism and practicality, communal ambition and individual kink. Stories jump between genres—from historical fiction to science fiction, realism to fabulism—but all ask those fundamental human questions: What do we do when we lose our utopia? What will we do to get it back?
