Esther Chehebar’s Sisters of Fortune: A Novel is the story of three sisters in a Syrian Jewish family: a rebellious – and single – older sister; a middle sister questioning her upcoming marriage; and a baby sister sneaking around with a charming older bachelor. They find themselves caught between tradition and modernity, reckoning with what their tight-knit community wants for them against what they want for themselves. Jeanine Cummins’ Speak to Me of Home: A Novel is a multigenerational story of family and identity. When Rafaela marries in Puerto Rico, she cannot predict the drastic change that awaits her young family in America, where her daughter, Ruth, struggles to belong. Only when tragedy strikes Ruth’s own daughter do the three women begin to reflect on their choices – and the meaning of belonging. Jonas Hassen Khemiri’s The Sisters: A Novel follows the complicated and memorable Mikkola siblings – three unforgettable women bound by family, betrayal, and desire – and Jonas, whose life intersects theirs across three decades. From Tunisia to Sweden to New York, this family saga chronicles sibling rivalry, love, and a shocking revelation that changes everything.
