Lydia Millet has published more than a dozen novels and two collections of stories; her latest, "Atavists," is a bit of both - a novel in stories, a deliciously digestible and of-the-moment read. Each chapter of the collection from the " Dinosaurs " novelist gives us a look into the lives of a group of neighbors in Southern California. In each chapter, a main character is identified as some kind of "ist" - Tourist, Dramatist, Mixologist, Therapist, Optimist, etc.

“Old School Indian,” Aaron John Curtis’s wonderfully voicey debut novel, which he describes in an afterword as “full autofiction,” opens with a note from Dominick Deer Woods, who turns out to be the alter ego of the protagonist, Abe Jacobs. Before we begin, Dominick wants us to learn one word in Mohawk: the word for grandparent, Tóta.
