Books Fiction to Read in Fall 2023 • One of Kirkus Reviews' Fall 2023 Big Books By Small Presses • A Kirkus Review Work of Translated Fiction To Read Now • One of CBC Books Best Books of 2023 In an alternate history in which the French never surrendered Detroit, children protect their own kingdom in the trees. In an alternate history of Detroit, the Motor City was never surrendered to the US. Its residents deal with pollution, poverty, and the legacy of racism—and strange and magical things are happening: children rule over their own kingdom in the trees and burned houses regenerate themselves. When Gloria arrives looking for answers and her missing granddaughters, at first she finds only a hungry mouse in the derelict home where her daughter was murdered. But the neighbours take pity on her and she turns to their resilience and impressive gardens for sustenance. When a strange intuition sends Gloria into the woods of Parc Rouge, where the city’s orphaned and abandoned children are rumored to have created their own society, she can’t imagine the strength she will find. A richly imagined story of community and a plea for persistence in the face of our uncertain future, The Future is a lyrical testament to the power we hold to protect the people and places we love—together.Par Waubgeshig Rice. 2023

INSTANT NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER#1 New York Times bestselling author C. J. Box's Treasure State finds Cassie Dewell in Montana…
on the trail of a con man.Private Investigator Cassie Dewell’s business is thriving, and her latest case puts her on the hunt for a slippery con man who’s disappeared somewhere in the “treasure state”. A wealthy Florida widow has accused him of absconding with her fortune, and wants Cassie to find him and get it back. The trail takes Cassie to Anaconda, Montana, a quirky former copper mining town that’s the perfect place to reinvent yourself. As the case develops, Cassie begins to wonder if her client is telling her everything.On top of that, Cassie is also working what's easily one of her strangest assignments ever. A poem that promises buried treasure to one lucky adventurer has led to a cutthroat competition and five deaths among treasure-hunters. But Cassie’s client doesn’t want the treasure. Instead, he claims to be the one who hid the gold and wrote the poem. And he’s hired Cassie to try to find him. Between the two cases, Cassie has her hands full.In Montana, a killer view can mean more than just the scenery, and Cassie knows much darker things hide behind the picturesque landscape of Big Sky Country. Treasure State, C. J. Box's highly anticipated follow-up to The Bitterroots, is full of more twists and turns than the switchbacks through the Anaconda Range.Par Fiona Sherlock. 2023

El primer caso de Quirke y Strafford es la novela negra más ambiciosa del ganador del Premio Príncipe de Asturias,…
cuyo proyecto declarado es «transformar la novela policiaca en arte» 1945: la guerra ha terminado, y algunos alemanes deben huir del país. Tras un viaje agotador, un hombre llega a un antiguo monasterio franciscano que se alza frente a los Dolomitas. Allí hallará refugio y también sellará un pacto. Más de una década después, el doctor Quirke es «un animal herido» que se ha mudado a casa de su hija Phoebe tras la trágica muerte de su mujer. Cuando en un garaje de Dublín aparece el cadáver de la joven estudiante judía Rosa Jacobs, todo parece apuntar a un suicidio, pero Quirke y el inspector Strafford —que se enfrentan a su primer caso juntos—sospechan que se trata de un crimen, al igual que la hermana de la víctima, una periodista que se une a la búsqueda de la verdad y zarandea el corazón del patólogo. Mientras las relaciones entre los dos investigadores se vuelven cada vez más tensas, el misterio se agudiza cuando descubren los vínculos de Rosa con el hijo de una acaudalada familia alemana que se mudó al condado de Wicklow tras la Segunda Guerra Mundial y tiene negocios en Israel. ¿Podrán unir las piezas del rompecabezas oculto? La crítica ha dicho:«Soberbio e impactante [...]. Más que un toque de genialidad».The Times «Black regresa con su perspicacia habitual y su elegante prosa. [...] Una escritura fluida que nos deslumbra en algunos pasajes delicadamente labrados que hacen que uno quiera ir más despacio para saborearlos».Dan Fesperman, The New York Times «Una gran novela policiaca, elegante, original y absolutamente absorbente».Daily Mail«Las hermanas Jacobs promete elevar la novela negra a nuevas cotas artísticas».Financial Times «Las novelas de Black se leen y saborean como las de Simenon por la atmósfera, por los personajes y por cómo capta los caprichos de la naturaleza humana. Es un maestro de la escenografía. [...] La trama de la novela está llena de giros y sorpresas».Allan Massie, The Scotsman «John Banville/Benjamin Black es un maestro y su prosa es un deleite incesante».Martin Amis «Black, como Banville, como los maestros, crea personajes que no son solo personajes,que están vivos, en un mundo paralelo al nuestro, el mundo de la Literatura, con mayúsculas».Laura Fernández, El Cultural «Black es un maestro de la novela negra de altura, del noir literario en la tradición de Simenon y Chandler».The Guardian«John Banville es un escritor enorme y hay mucho de Banville en Black».Carlos Zanón, El País «El escritor de lengua inglesa más inteligente, el estilista más elegante».George Steiner «Leer a John Banville es una fiesta».Miguel Ángel Oeste, El CulturalPar Jumata Emill. 2023
