The Twelve-Mile Straight by author Eleanor Henderson

The Twelve-Mile Straight

A novel that combines the intimacy of a family drama with the staggering presence of a great Southern saga. Tackling themes of racialized violence, social division, and financial crisis, The Twelve-Mile Straight is a startlingly timely, emotionally resonant, and magnificent tour de force.

“[A] superb novel whose roots can be traced to Harper Lee and Carson McCullers.” –O, the Oprah Magazine

Ten Thousand Saints by author Eleanor Henderson

Ten Thousand Saints

A sweeping, multigenerational drama set against the backdrop of the raw, roaring Lower East Side of New York during the late 1980s, Ten Thousand Saints announced a major new voice. Part coming of age, part coming to terms, Eleanor Henderson’s debut novel is an emphatically observed story of a frayed tangle of family members, brought painfully together by a death, then carried along in anticipation of new and unexpected life. The inspiration for the 2015 film starring Ethan Hawke.

“[A] rare debut that, with a flinty kind of nostalgia, invokes both the gods and demons of a generation.” —Vogue
