Trauma. Obsession. And the lingering pull of what cannot be spoken aloud.
Welcome to your March read, Gloss by Kyra Wilder – an unconventional psychological thriller with feminist bite. Transposing the Greek myth of the Hesperides to Marin County at the turn of the millennium, Wilder’s prose is sensuous and immersive, drawing us into a world of desire and denial, fascination and fear.
This is a novel that lingers, both for its delicate lyricism and its unflinching gaze. We hope you find it as haunting and compelling as we did. We’d love to know your thoughts – and this month, we’re inviting you to do so at our very first IRL book club. We’ll let you know the details by email, so keep an eye on your inboxes!
