Enon: A Novel (Ala Notable Books for Adults)

NAMED ONE OF THE BEST NOVELS OF THE YEAR BY
The Wall Street Journal â€¢ American Library Association â€¢ Kirkus Reviews

A stunning allegorical novel about one manâ€™s enduring love for his daughter

Hailed as â€œa masterpieceâ€ (NPR), Tinkers, Paul Hardingâ€™s Pulitzer Prizeâ€“winning debut, is a modern classic. The Dallas Morning News observed that â€œlike Faulkner, Harding never shies away from describing what seems impossible to put into words.â€ Here, in Enon, Harding follows a year in the life of Charlie Crosby as he tries to come to terms with a shattering personal tragedy. Grandson of George Crosby (the protagonist of Tinkers), Charlie inhabits the same dynamic landscape of New England, its seasons mirroring his turbulent emotional odyssey. Along the way, Charlieâ€™s encounters are brought to life by his wit, his insights into history, and his yearning to understand the big questions. A stunning mosaic of human experience, Enon affirms Paul Harding as one of the most gifted and profound writers of his generation.
