A review by jcgrenn_reads
The Lost Book of Adana Moreau by Michael Zapata
5.0
This book. Is. ENORMOUS. In just a few short pages, this book spans interconnected galaxies and universes yet tackles a similar magnitude in how families and generations forget, remember, but always influence each other across time. Time has never felt more like a graspable dimension, rather than just a timeline we trudge along, than in this novel.
I recommend you buckle in for a brainy read for this one, but don’t let that distract you from the beautiful bursts of poetry throughout the book.
For recommended reading about alternate universes, I recommend Exhalation by Ted Chiang.
For more in depth exploration of the effects of Katrina on family and community, read Salvage the Bones by Jesmyn Ward and The Yellow House by Sarah Broom.
