INTRODUCEPICK
(WINTER/SPRING
2019)
Izzy,
a
practical-minded
teen
who
intends
to
become
a
doctor,
isn't
happy
about
her
recent
move
from
the
Lower
East
Side
across
the
river
to
Brooklyn.
She
feels
distanced
from
her
family,
especially
her
increasingly
incomprehensible
twin
brother,
as
well
as
her
new
neighborhood.
And then she meets Tristan.
Tristan is a chess prodigy who lives with his aunt and looks up to his cousin, Marcus, who has watched out for him over the years. When he and Izzy meet one fateful night, together they tumble into a story as old and unstoppable as love itself.
In debut author Shannon Dunlap's capable hands, the romance that has enthralled for 800 years is spun new. Told from several points of view,Izzy + Tristanis a love story for the ages and a love story for this very moment. This fast-paced novel is at once a gripping tale of first love and a sprawling epic about the bonds that tie us together and pull us apart and the different cultures and tensions that fill the contemporary American landscape.

Recenzii
"This
debut
breathes
new
life
into
the
epic
tale
of
Tristan
and
Iseult;
instead
of
war,
the
game
is
chess.
This
modern
tragedy
romance
is
deadly
serious
in
its
execution,
placing
teens
on
the
front
lines
of
today's
headlines.
With
rich
prose
and
a
backdrop
that
draws
on
racial
tensions
in
America,
this
is
a
fierce,
smart
reimagining
of
a
timeless
love
story."—Booklist
