AnotherIndieFavoriteLookaway,Lookaway:ANovel,byWiltonBarnhardt(Picador,$16)“Lookaway, Lookaway is a wildly entertaining social novel that examines the lives of a Southern family in contemporary America. If you appreciate Jonathan Franzen, you will go hoohah over Wilton Barnhardt’s latest work. If you don’t enjoy Franzen, you may go double hoohah. Barnhardt casts his novelist’s eye on society and culture and expertly delivers a searing, biting, touching, and hilarious novel that deserves a wide audience and teaches us all a thing or two. If you like to laugh, cry, and learn while marveling at exquisite writing, this book should not be missed or ignored. A literary treat!” —EdConklin,Chaucer’sBooks,SantaBarbara,CA
