~ Standard Hardcover ~ New Release - 2024 Anne, an amateur historian with a passion for research into the murkier corners of England in the 1600s, stumbles across an obscure memoir in an archive that hints at an intricate tapestry of secret lives and loves . . . A sparkling, genre-bending, literary-historical novel with a modern twist in the vein of Fingersmith by Sarah Waters and Fayne by Ann-Marie MacDonald, Curiosities offers an intellectually stimulating, and offbeat dip into the lesser known histories of queer people. “Singular and surprising, Curiosities is a captivating story of hope, change, and belonging, and first and foremost a testament to varieties of love that endure beyond any one history or era.” -- 2024 Giller Jury Citation Show more
