Mikaella Clements and Onjuli Datta recommend Toni Morrison, Mary McCarthy, and The Count of Monte Cristo
One of summer’s dishier pleasures is the possibility of following a compelling and much-covered celebrity romance; it is extremely convenient timing that Bennifer 2.0 arrived right on schedule for this laziest and most gossipy of seasons.
As part of our summer reading recommendations series, Clements and Datta have suggested Mary McCarthy, Toni Morrison, Wang Shuo, and more, and they’re absolutely right that you should readOur heroine Monk is living in an unnamed city’s Chinatown, trying to avoid her belligerent father, when she meets cool boy and romantic interest Santa Coy—
who promptly teams up with her dad to run a series of art cons. Written in short, sharp vignettes, this novel feels like a fever dream in neon lights, with a sly, observant heroine we loved. It’s a great one to keep you company on hot nights or dazed days.Elaine Castillo’s debut novel tells the story of Hero, who emigrates to live in San Jose, California
with her beloved uncle after years spent underground in a guerrilla revolutionary group in the Philippines. It’s an overwhelming and epic novel with a narrative and protagonist who immediately grip you, and it’s so incisive and beautiful about so many things: family, food, migration, duty, trauma. But the thing that gets us most is its love story—a sexy, funny, sweeping romance with one of the best “I love you” declarations you’ll ever read.
