The Garden of Last Days: A Novel
🌟 Editor’s Pick — Why It Belongs on Your ShelfSet on the weekend before 9/11 in Florida’s underbelly, The Garden of Last Days is a high-wire, character-driven collision of three lives—April (a dancer and young mother), AJ (a volatile working-class man), and Bassam (an enigmatic newcomer). Dubus propels the story with quick-cut chapters and deep empathy, balancing momentum with moral complexity. As Stephen King put it, it’s “so good, so damn compulsively readable.” Ideal if you want a novel that grips like a thriller but resonates like literary fiction.
