‘Gays like you…’

Debut novel features “a fast-paced, stream-of-consciousness, interior monologue style” that reveals “layers of complexity in the queer Palestinian immigrant’s experience of life in the West.” The result? A “politically sophisticated and often wickedly funny first novel, grounded in the foibles of human nature and how we respond to them, that’s well worth reading.” —Daniel Gawthrop reviews Three Parties, by Ziyad Saadi (Toronto: Hamish Hamilton, 2025) $34.95 / 9780735250963

Kabul and after

Set in Afghanistan, Pakistan, and Canada during the early 1990s, an appealing children’s book portrays realistic hardship, loss, and uncertainty but remains far from despondent or despairing. —Brett Josef Grubisic reviews Zia’s Story, by Shahnaz Qayumi (illustrated by Nahid Kazemi) (Vancouver Tradewind Books, 2024) $14.95 / 9781990598142
