That's All I Know

Elisa Levi

Sinossi

A propulsive, bewitching novel about home and family, the ache of unrealised dreams and the quiet tragedy of unrequited love.

Nineteen-year-old Lea is from a village that is out of time, out of jobs and out of hope. She and her friends, however, are vivid and electric with life. They yearn, they dance, they fuck, they fight. And around them, a world that isn't quite our own vibrates with strangeness and threat.

Now Lea is here, sitting on a bench, telling a silent stranger her life story. Because yesterday, change was finally unavoidable.

A novel of rural entrapment and coming of age, Elisa Levi's That's All I Know bears the traces of Beckett and Lorca, rings with the echo of folktales and has a fierce, unapologetic vitality at its heart. Startlingly odd and deeply moving, it is the work of a profound and singular talent.

Loving Lavender Finch

Kelly Bargabos

It isn’t the trauma that almost ruins Lavender, it is the shame she swallows when she keeps it a secret that threatens to choke the life out of her. 
Lavender Finch never thought of herself as a liar. To her former fifth grade teacher, Mrs. Gordon, she’s the reliable babysitter; to her devoted tribe of extended family, she’s the beloved daughter, niece, and cousin; and to her best friend Jana, the muse for fashion advice and gossip. But when trauma shows up by the name of Travis, she begins keeping secrets and telling lies so that no one finds out what happened to her. What she let happen to her.  
As she pushes away all those closest to her, she unexpectedly falls in love with a boy in Cuba she’s never met and a grandmother who doesn’t remember who Lavender is, most of the time. When her lies begin unraveling in a very public way, will trusting people with her truth confirm her fears or make room for the love she always longed for?  
A love story for all of us who've struggled to feel known and loved, not only by others but also ourselves, Loving Lavender Finch explores the complexities of self-acceptance and the courage it takes to share the deepest parts of our soul with another.
