Twinless Twin

—AWP James Alan McPherson Prize for the Novel Winner, 2024

“A dreamy tale that unravels with hypnotic precision. A story of love and secrets, all played out against a backdrop of meticulous, flowing writing. The best stories are the ones that leave readers with decisions to make: about themselves, about life, about the world... Twinless Twin leaves readers with all of those difficult choices and more. It's a novel that relies heavily on the established traditions of rural storytelling--with its tropes of magic, danger, and folklore--while grappling with contemporary themes with no loss of momentum or impact. In short: a wonderful story.”  —Jason Mott, National Book Award Winner, 2021
