Happy New Year! There’s nothing like starting a new year than by reflecting on all of the great things that happened in the past year. At the Pratt, we are doing just that. Here’s a look at the books our staff couldn’t put down in 2019.
Queenie
By Candice Carty-Williams
“Queenie was hilarious and heartfelt while tackling inter-generational trauma.”
Recommended by Tracy Dimond, Programs and Outreach
Then We Came to the End
By Joshua Ferris
“Joshua Ferris’ novel is a laugh out loud highly original portrait of the modern American corporate business world. The book is narrated by “we” — the employees. One of the funniest novels ever — in a tough genre to write.”
Recommended by Ann Gordon, Govans Branch
“The writing is smooth and seamless. The story becomes more and more interesting. The relationships Binti builds are unusual, and the concepts throughout are imaginative.”
Recommended by Julia Forde, Mobile Job Center
