“A debut that explores sexuality, family trauma, and grief — after our main character’s mother dies in a car crash and leaves mysterious letters to five different men — but it's all packed in a smart, funny package.” —Entertainment Weekly

“This book is on literally every anticipated book list for 2020 and for good reason.” —Paper Mag

Told over the course of a funeral and shiva, and written with enormous wit and warmth, All My Mother's Lovers is the much-anticipated debut novel from Israeli-American fiction writer and book critic Ilana Masad. A unique meditation on the universality and particularity of family ties and grief, and a tender and biting portrait of sex, gender, and identity. FREE, $5 suggested donation
