Seek out that new book smell with a fresh bouquet of fiction Moira Macdonald View Comments It s not too soon to begin your summer reading! A number of highly acclaimed 2020 books came out in paperback this month; here s a fresh bouquet of fiction to suit any taste. Homeland Elegies by Ayad Akhtar (Little, Brown & Co, $16.99). Winner of a Pulitzer Prize for his play Disgraced, Akhtar here draws on his own life (the narrator is a man named Ayad Akhtar, who has written a Pulitzer Prize-winning play about a Muslim American) to create a novel about a man struggling to negotiate post-9/11 America. Akhtar bounds far beyond the cleverly engineered drama of Disgraced, wrote Ron Charles of the Washington Post about the book, a much-honored bestseller last year. With its sprawling vision of contemporary America, Homeland Elegies is a phenomenal coalescence of memoir, fiction, history and cultural analysis.
