Susan M. Gaines – Accidentals
April 5, 2025
Accidentals
With all the thrills of a rare bird sighting, Gaines’s novel Accidentals limns a compelling love story within a thicket of history, endangered species biology, and Latin American political repression. At a time when US democracy is threatened by fascism and unchecked greed, Gaines’s new novel reminds us of how the past shadows the present—and of how often planetary crises of environmental degradation, species loss, and climate change have been eclipsed by seemingly more urgent human political and economic crises.

$0.00 – $25.00
Gorgeous, smart, and surprising, Gaines’s family saga takes us into the large world of nations and politics, but also the microscopic world of mud and microbes. Tender and powerful. Also with birds! — Karen Joy Fowler
