🚨EXCLUSIVE JACKET REVEAL BY OPRAH DAILY!!🚨
“A rising global literary star,” writes Hamilton Cain of Oprah Daily, “the Argentine writer Mariana Enriquez has responded to the horrors of the recent past with a singular twist on horror. Next February, Hogarth, an imprint of Penguin Random House, is publishing Our Share of Night, her stirring, speculative epic, brilliantly translated by Megan McDowell and blending the sweep and innovation of Namwali Serpell’s The Old Drift with the dystopian dread of Cormac McCarthy’s The Road and Stephen King’s chills and thrills. In an exclusive, Oprah Daily reveals the off-kilter, graphically seductive cover.”
“This novel took two years to write, but probably all my life to conceive,” Mariana Enriquez tells Cain. “It's about the history of my country, it's about family and heritage and bonds, it's about parenthood and friendship. It has magic. It has my obsessions. It's queer at its heart. Though it has plenty of horror and supernatural elements, it’s also deeply personal and weirdly realistic.”
When I became Hogarth’s Editor-in-Chief almost a year ago I also became Mariana’s editor—a gift of assignment that felt like Christmas. I’ve been pushing the shockingly great Our Share of Night into people’s hands ever since, and I’m so glad the book now has a stunner of a jacket to wear out into the world. Already hailed as “one of the best novels of the 21st century” (Paul Tremblay) and “a magnificent accomplishment” (Alan Moore), Our Share of Night is is the masterwork by “one of Latin America’s most exciting novelists” (Silvia Morena-Garcia).
This is Mariana’s first novel to be translated into English and we wouldn’t be reading it without the enormous gifts of Mariana’s celebrated translator Megan McDowell.
A thousand thanks to Hamilton Cain and Oprah Daily for sharing our jacket with the world. Link to the full Oprah Daily story is in my bio.
