By Hai Fan, trans. from the Chinese by Jeremy Tiang (Tilted Axis)
I’m not sure I’ve read anything quite like these stories of the Communist insurgency in Malaysia. The sensuous descriptions of the guerrilla soldiers’ feasts, which they put together while living off the land in the rainforest, somehow find their way into harmony with harrowing descriptions of sacrifice and wistful reflections from veterans on how their lives were transformed years after the war. This collection is tender and unflinching in equal measure. —David Varno, literary fiction reviews editorBy Tom Lathan, illus. by Claire Kohda (Picador UK)
Lathan's moving debut is one of several recent volumes taking stock of environmental destruction through profiles of extinct animals, but this one is the best yet, elevated by affecting stories of scientists' futile efforts to save doomed species. A menagerie of ghosts, this will haunt readers. —Marc Greenawalt, science and pop culture reviews editorBy Sara Kehaulani Goo (Flatiron)
Goo, a journalist and native Hawaiian, uses a 500% tax hike on her family's parcel of Maui acreage to discuss broader questions of land stewardship and shifting cultural priorities on the Hawiian islands. The resulting hybrid of memoir and history is rigorous, edifying, and frequently heartbreaking. —Conner Reed, mystery and memoir reviews editor
