BEST INDIE BOOKS OF 2024’ LIST: TWO OF SIBYLLINE PRESS’ NOVELS MAKE KIRKUS REVIEWS
We’re thrilled that our client Sibylline Press has two novels that have been selected to be in Kirkus Reviews’ “Best Indie Books of 2024” list in a special email newsletter on December 16th, and also on the Kirkus Reviews’ website: HERE.
In Silence: A Novel, Julia Park Tracey delivers a bewitching tale of loss and redemption, based on her own ancestor, her seventh great-grandmother Silence Marsh who Julia discovered during family history research on Ancestry.com. After three grievous losses, Puritan woman Silence Marsh dares to question God aloud in the church, and that blasphemy lands her in trouble—she is silenced for a year by the powers that be.
Hilarious and surprising, The Goldie Standard by Simi Monheit brings a present-day take on a highly creative grandmother trapped in Assisted Living who sets out to find her unsuspecting Ph.D granddaughter a husband who is a doctor—with a yarmulke, of course. This novel explores generational differences, the weight of tradition, and the legacy of Holocaust survivors. Drawing on the long tradition of Jewish humor and pathos, The Goldie Standard mainly celebrates life.
