The New York Times bestselling novel THE PROPHETS by Robert Jones, Jr. has been named a Best Book of the Year So Far 2021 by Goodreads and the Amazon Book Review. In their review, Amazon writes: “The intimate connection between two male slaves toiling on a Mississippi plantation is the only thing that cuts through their otherwise brutal existence. This is the one bright spot in a lyrical but devastating debut novel that shines a harsher light on a shameful legacy that is still deeply felt today. It’s also a profound reminder of love’s power to repudiate it.” Putnam published the book January 5, 2021.

Rosecrans Baldwin's EVERYTHING NOW has been reviewed by the New York Times on the day of its highly anticipated release. They write: “To write the definitive book about Los Angeles would be impossible. In EVERYTHING NOW, the novelist Rosecrans Baldwin doesn’t try. And in not trying, he may have written the perfect book about Los Angeles. Freewheeling and polyhedral, the book could serve equally as an ornament on the coffee table of a Silver Lake architect; a pamphlet at an anti-deportation rally downtown." The Los Angeles Times also ran a feature interview with Baldwin, hailing EVERYTHING NOW as “an impressionistic, ambivalent, interview-heavy, judgment-light book of reportage about L.A. today.” MCD Books published the book on June 15, 2021.
