"A Door Behind a Door is loose, dreamy, and symbol-packed... The resurfacing of characters from Olga’s past in her new city speaks to the theme of immigration in the novel, of new homes and the passage from old to new—a passage that is perhaps not ever fully complete in the sense that the past cannot be shaken." —Marta Balcewicz, Ploughshares In Yelena Moskovich's spellbinding new novel, A Door Behind A Door, we meet Olga, who immigrates as part of the Soviet diaspora of ’91 to Milwaukee, Wisconsin. There she grows up and meets a girl and falls in love, beginning to believe that she can settle down. But a phone call from a bad man from her past brings to life a haunted childhood in an apartment building in the Soviet Union: an unexplained murder in her block, a supernatural stray dog, and the mystery of her beloved brother Moshe, who lost an eye and later vanished. We get pulled into Olga’s past as she puzzles her way through an underground Midwestern Russian mafia, in pursuit of a string of mathematical stabbings.

"Hourglass is an inquiry into how marriage is transformed by time--abraded, strengthened, shaped in miraculous and sometimes terrifying ways by accident and experience. With courage and relentless honesty, Dani Shapiro opens the door to her house, her marriage, and her heart, and invites us to witness her own marital reckoning--a reckoning in which she confronts both the life she dreamed of and the life she made, and struggles to reconcile the girl she was with the woman she has become."

Two intrepid teenagers seek to survive a perilous world in which the risk of death is an everyday reality. While residing within a structure called the Mansion, the first young girl grows ever more restless as her heart longs for meaning and freedom outside of her present life. The oppressive walls of the Mansion form the only home she's ever known, but for her and the several hundred occupants within the Mansion, their fortified existence is as suffocating as it is vital. Grotesque creatures roam outside their fortress, haunting their every step and promising a fate worse than death. The second teenager travels with a ragged party of survivors across an unforgiving wilderness after their own walled compound is destroyed. The teen's uncle leads them on their journey to discover a new life while avoiding the relentless beasts hunting them. Despite palpable threats at every turn, the second teen finds the most pressing harm to be her father's smothering, protective shadow, which threatens her quest for independence at every turn. As the danger grows and more deaths toll, both girls will face their own unique realities head-on. In Hourglass, author Garrett Schroeder takes you on this exhilarating journey, where you will confront two timeless questions: first, what makes a monster, and second, what should be feared more, a monster at your door or a monster within?
