Visit Marcia at The Printed Page today to share your Mailbox Monday. Here is what arrived at my house this week:
Right of Thirst by Frank Huyler arrived from Stephanie at Harper Perennial. Not only was I attracted to this gorgeous cover, but the story sounds wonderful too. The press release reads: ‘A haunting, resonant tour de force, Frank Huyler’s newest novel Right of Thirst tells the story of an American doctor’s search for redemption that lands him halfway across the world on a disastrous relief mission.‘ Stewart O’Nan calls Right of Thirst ‘clear and deep and wise...‘ This novel is due for release tomorrow. Read more about the book at the Harper website. Frank Huyler is an emergency physician in Albuquerque, New Mexico, and the author of the essay collection The Blood of Strangers as well as the novel The Laws of Invisible Things. He grew up in Iran, Brazil, and Japan. Get a taste of his writing here.
