Idra Novey’s forthcoming novel TAKE WHAT YOU NEED is one of Vulture’s most-anticipated reads for this winter. Isle McElroy writes: “Idra Novey appears capable of doing it all. She is a poet, a translator, and with TAKE WHAT YOU NEED, her third book of fiction, she is firmly establishing herself as one of the finest and bravest novelists working today…Novey is a master of the small and enormous mysteries that compose every person’s life, and TAKE WHAT YOU NEED is her most skillful exploration of artistic dedication and the ruins that accrue over the course of a life.” Viking will publish the novel on on March 14, 2023.
