Fight Night

(Knopf Canada) by Miriam Toews

Nobody toggles between comedy and drama like Miriam Toews, who shifts from screwball scenes to serious moments seemingly without effort. Her latest novel is narrated by nine-year-old Swiv, and it’s up to her to hold her family together: her outlandish grandmother on her last legs; and her actor mother, very pregnant and filled with rage, which might not be due to baby Gord. It’s a novel filled with sharp observations on how families work, even the most offbeat ones.

The Invention of Sicily: A Mediterranean History

(Verso) by Jamie Mackay

This is something remarkable: a brief, fascinating, well-informed history from ancient Greeks to modern-day politics. Sicily has been conquered over and over (Romans, Byzantines, Arabs, Normans), ruled by the French and the Spanish, and controlled by Naples and Rome and by the Mafia. Far from being on the periphery of Italy, Jamie Mackay argues that Sicily is central to history, a gateway between Europe, Africa, and Asia. This is a terrific introduction to a place, and a people, like no other.

What Strange Paradise

(McClelland & Stewart) by Omar El Akkad

A creaky boat overloaded with migrants and economic refugees flounders off the shore of an unnamed Mediterranean island, and only nine-year-old Amir survives in this powerful novel by journalist/ novelist Omar El Akkad, author of the bestselling American War. The narrative alternates between Amir’s time on the claustrophobic boat and his time on the island, where a local girl risks everything to help. Thrilling, heartbreaking, and thought-provoking, winner of the 2021 Giller Prize.
