The Möbius Book
by Catherine Lacey
One of modern fiction’s great storytellers turns the pen on herself and the collapse of her relationship in this book that is part fiction, part memoir… but which part is which? As inventive and twisting as its name implies, the two portions of this book challenge and complicate one another as they loop around again and again.

Stag Dance: A Novel 8 Stories
by Torrey Peters

Notes from a Regicide
by Isaac Fellman
Prepare to be enthralled by the patchy warmth of the eternal city of New York, thousands of years in the future. Here, you’ll find the rare luxury of chocolate and the refuge and failure of art. When trans revolutionaries become painters in exile, their son’s work accords them the dignity of legends. But legends are also people: knobbly, sick, and strangely wonderful.
—Ari Mackoff, bookseller at Oblong Books, Rhinebeck
