Glaciers is a carefully precise and beautiful meditation on one young woman’s restless heart. It resonates like a haunting postcard from someone else’s life.

“Joshua Knelman has painted a luminous portrait of the interconnected world of thieves, cops, and lawyers obsessed with stolen art . . . Knelman’s gifts as an investigator and storyteller drip from every page. Hot Art? Hot book.” —Jeremy Keehn, Associate Editor at Harper’s Magazine

“Leni Zumas’s visceral debut novel is a darkly funny and disturbing rager. Weaving a dreamlike coming-of-age story with the melancholic tales of a rock band self-destructing and a family’s loss, Zumas’s deft language careens through the lives of her characters with killer sentence after killer sentence. It’s a crushing, dazzling performance.” —Kevin Sampsell, A Common Pornography

What Happened to Sophie Wilder is an old fashioned literary novel in the very best sense–thoughtful and intellectual, moving and well-wrought. Like its restless, yearning characters, it’s not afraid of the big questions, God and love, work and love, friendship and love, and yet the solace this impressive debut finds lies as deeply in the page as in the flesh or the spirit. Beha has managed to produce a book that is satisfying for anyone who reads in order to live.”
