Starling Days

Starling Days by Rowan Hisayo Buchanan is a beautifully wrought novel that explores love, mythology, mental illness, and the search for connection. Mina, standing on the edge of the George Washington Bridge, is intercepted by patrol officers. Her husband, Oscar, hopes that leaving New York for London will give Mina the space to heal. In an apartment adorned with indigo-eyed birds, they encounter Oscar’s oldest friends, explore canals, and visit blooming flower markets.
