NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER - ONE OF BARACK OBAMA'S FAVORITE BOOKS OF THE YEAR - A bracingly epic and imaginatively mythic journey across the American West (Entertainment Weekly), from the celebrated author of The Tiger's Wife and The Morningside

Obreht's simple but rich prose captures and luxuriates in the West's beauty and sudden menace.--The New York Times Book Review (Editors' Choice)

A BEST BOOK OF THE YEAR: Time, The Washington Post, Entertainment Weekly, Esquire, Real Simple, Good Housekeeping, Town & Country, The New York Public Library, Kirkus Reviews, Library Journal, BookPage

In the lawless, drought-ridden lands of the Arizona Territory in 1893, two extraordinary lives unfold. Nora is an unflinching frontierswoman awaiting the return of the men in her life--her husband, who has gone in search of water for the parched household, and her elder sons, who have vanished after an explosive argument. Lurie is a former outlaw and a man haunted by ghosts. He sees lost souls who want something from him, and he finds reprieve from their longing in an unexpected relationship that inspires a momentous expedition across the West.

Mythical, lyrical, and sweeping in scope, Inland is grounded in true but little-known history. It showcases all of Téa Obreht's talents as a writer, as she subverts and reimagines the myths of the American West, making them entirely--and unforgettably--her own.
