The latest from internationally celebrated author Romesh Gunesekera, Suncatcher debuted in the United States earlier this month. The novel tells a tumultuous, heartfelt coming-of-age story, praised by Kirkus Reviews as “a lyrical and evocative portrait of a Sri Lankan boyhood friendship and the life lessons that came with it.”

In January 2020 we published the tenth anniversary edition of Michelle Alexander’s The New Jim Crow: Mass Incarceration in the Age of Colorblindness. This landmark book argues that the racial caste system in America never ended—it was simply redesigned—and that today’s criminal justice system functions as a contemporary system of racial control.
