"Older''s writing is at once clear-eyed, lovely, and fascinating. This book marches right into the revolution in a way that is eerily timeless and timely. Wow!" --Jacqueline Woodson, bestselling, award-winning author of Brown Girl Dreaming and 2020 MacArthur Fellow "Older''s spellbinding novel is a fever dream full of magic and loss, wickedness and grace, faith and love, spirit and power." --Marlon James, Man Booker Prize-winning author of Black Leopard, Red Wolf "A lyrical, beautiful , devastating, literally haunting journey of assimilation, resistance, and family. Older just gets better and better." --N.K. Jemisin, award-winning author of the Broken Earth trilogy "Older''s masterwork ... should launch him into the company of American literary greats... Epic and intimate , conjuring laughter on one page, tears on the next." --Tananarive Due, American Book Award-winning author of The Living Blood and Ghost Summer "A moving, startling, boldly drawn family saga that is equal parts mystery and ghost story, with details sharp enough to cut and characters who surprise at every turn." --Leigh Bardugo, worldwide bestselling author of Ninth House and the Grishaverse novels "Thoroughly transportive... This moving story of family and freedom is sure to captivate readers ." --Publishers Weekly , starred review "The Book of Lost Saints is so true, it hurts, yet for all the despair, Older gives us even more resilience, hope, and love . I couldn''t stop turning the pages." --Amerie, New York Times -bestselling editor of Because You Love to Hate Me and Grammy-nominated singer-songwriter "With lyricism and atmosphere, Older skillfully emphasizes tone...

Unforgettable and well worth your time." --Alex Segura, acclaimed author of Blackout and Dangerous Ends "A story that bridges worlds: those of the living and the dead, of English and Spanish, and even the gulf between Cuba and New Jersey. Daniel José Older balances these threads and carries the specters of immigrant family trauma to a triumphant conclusion. In his vision of the immigrant story, no memory of violence can obstruct the characters'' hope of thriving." --Marcos Damián León, Iron Horse Literary Review Praise for Daniel José Older "In Older''s stories, the dead are as much a part of the living... Older''s love for storytelling comes through on every page." --Roxane Gay, New York Times -bestselling author of Bad Feminist and Hunger "This is the beauty and magic of Older''s writing--he leaves us openmouthed and speechless, asking ''What just happened to me?!''" --Jacqueline Woodson, New York Times -bestselling author of Another Brooklyn "The world Older builds is familiar and alien, and it''s so vividly imagined and rendered that the reader believes the contradictions, embraces them." --Jesmyn Ward, two-time National Book Award-winning author of Sing, Unburied, Sing "Daniel José Older is here to save your soul... A fabulous talent , one who mixes the spectral and the intellectual with skill." --Victor LaValle, award-winning author of The Changeling "Simply put, Daniel José Older has one of the most refreshing voices in genre fiction today." --Saladin Ahmed, Hugo Award-nominated author of Throne of the Crescent Moon, "Older's spellbinding novel is a fever dream full of magic and loss, wickedness and grace, faith and love, spirit and power." --Marlon James, Man Booker Prize-winning author of Black Leopard, Red Wolf "A lyrical, beautiful , devastating, literally haunting journey of assimilation, resistance, and family.
