Here’s a list of books I’m looking forward to reading this fall.

Home After Dark by David Small

In 2009, Small published a celebrated graphic memoir (回忆录) called “Stitches”. Now the Caldecott Medal winner is back with a graphic novel about a motherless 13-year-old boy brought up in an unhappy home in California. This is a tale told in few words and many striking images. It is published by Liveright. On Sept 11 at 3 pm, Small will be at Amazon Books at Union Market.

Waiting for Eden by Ellion Ackerman

This brief novel, which is published by Knopf, is related by a dead soldier who is watching over a horribly burned partner in a Texas hospital. That sounds embarrassingly emotional, but Ackerman, who served in a navy in Iraq and Afghanistan, is one of the best soldier writers of his generation.

All You Can Ever Know by Nicole Chung

Chung, the editor of the literary magazine Catapult, was adopted as a baby by a family in Oregon. In this memoir, she writes about her childhood, her Asian-American identity and her search for the Korean parents who gave her up. It is published by Catapult.

Unsheltered by Barbara Kingsolver

Alternating between past and present, this novel tells the story of a woman investigating a late-19^th-century science teacher who was caught up in the controversy (公开争论) over Darwinism. Like her other novels, this one promises to explore social and scientific problems. This book comes from the publishing house named Harper.
