(0 comment)
Every year, the booksellers at Powell’s submit their Top Fives: their five favorite books that were released in 2023. It’s a list that, when put together, shows just how varied and interesting the book tastes of Powell’s booksellers are. I highly recommend digging into the recommendations — we would never lead you astray — but today...

Barbara Kingsolver continues to grow as a writer, and nowhere is that more apparent than this novel. The story is written as a diary found and published by a long-time secretary. Using true stories of Leon Trotsky, Diego Rivera, and McCarthyism as a backdrop, the novel is a reflection on the relationship between art and politics.

Crimes in Southern Indiana: Stories

I read a lot of other books this year that I knew would be good. I happened to see this wandering through Powell's one day and picked it up, being from "those parts". I didn't know what to expect, and I can only say "wow". I thought "Winter's Bone" was dark, but that's the pretty face of meth in small-town America compared with Frank Bill's collection. After the first story, I wanted to put this book down but wanted to read one more story. From then on, I was hooked. Just like many of the characters in this book of interconnected stories.
