INDELICACY by Amina Cain
Amina Cain’s INDELICACY has been roundly praised this month. The Guardian writes: “INDELICACY is a thing of real delicacy, with a fine, distilled quality to the writing, every word precisely chosen, precisely placed. There’s a slyness to Cain’s writing that cuts through, and makes the tale increasingly engrossing.” The Irish Times calls the book “[a]n extraordinary feminist fable about women and art.” Meanwhile, The Financial Times writes: “There are remarkable things in this book…Perhaps it was always Cain’s intention to draw in busy readers quickly and easily, then suspend us, helpless and happy, in the extraordinary world she has created, unmoored in time or place.” Farrar, Straus, and Giroux published the book on February 11, 2020.
