MONSTERLAND by Nicholas Jubber is a spellbinding interrogation into why we need these monsters and what they can tell us about ourselves — how they bind communities together as much as they cruelly cast away outsiders.

THIS YEAR by John Darnielle illustrates the creative life and musical brilliance of the frontman of the Mountain Goats through a selection of the most significant songs. Spanning decades, it is the definitive literary record of one of the greatest songwriters and musical creative forces of all time.

COLONY by Annika Norlin is a masterful blend of humour, emotion, unforgettable characters, and sharp social commentary. It is a magnetic and deeply touching story about love, community, and the unfathomable power we have over others and that others have over us.

THE FOUR SPENT THE DAY TOGETHER by Chris Kraus explores the histories of three generations of American lives and the patterns that repeat over lifetimes and is piercing commentary on the pressures of lives lived on the edge.

🎁 This year has been filled with remarkable stories, powerful ideas and unforgettable voices, and here are a select few.
