12. Ayad Akhtar: The Radiance Ayad Akhtar’s previous book, Homeland Elegies, was one of Barack Obama’s favourite books of the year, and included in best of lists from The New York Times, Washington Post, and Publishers Weekly. This daring new novel from the Pulitzer Prize-winning writer continues his gripping fictional journey through a nation on the edge. Moving between rural America and Europe, Islam and Christianity, the intimate and the metaphysical, The Radiance is a tale of this fraught moment in American history; and, more broadly, a visionary novel of spiritual transformation in an age of fracture. Akhtar speaks about this electrifying new work with Minelle Mahtani.
