Product Information
BARNES & NOBLE'S APRIL BOOK CLUB PICK - A career defining tour-de-force from New York Times bestselling, award-winning and "formidably gifted" ( Chicago Tribune ) author of Peace Like a River Leif Enger. "A rare, remarkable book to be kept and reread--for its beauty of language, its gentle wisdom and its steady, unflagging hope." -- Laurie Hertzel, Minneapolis Star Tribune A storyteller "of great humanity and huge heart" ( Minneapolis Star Tribune ), Leif Enger debuted in the literary world with Peace Like a River which sold over a million copies and captured readers' hearts around the globe. Now comes a new milestone in this boldly imaginative author's accomplished, resonant body of work. Set in a not-too-distant America, I Cheerfully Refuse is the tale of a bereaved and pursued musician embarking under sail on a sentient Lake Superior in search of his departed, deeply beloved, bookselling wife. Rainy, an endearing bear of an Orphean narrator, seeks refuge in the harbors, fogs and remote islands of the inland sea. Encountering lunatic storms and rising corpses from the warming depths, Rainy finds on land an increasingly desperate and illiterate people, a malignant billionaire ruling class, crumbled infrastructure and a lawless society. Amidst the Gulliver-like challenges of life at sea and no safe landings, Rainy is lifted by physical beauty, surprising humor, generous strangers, and an unexpected companion in a young girl who comes aboard. And as his innate guileless nature begins to make an inadvertent rebel of him, Rainy's private quest for the love of his life grows into something wider and wilder, sweeping up friends and foes alike in his strengthening wake. I Cheerfully Refuse epitomizes the "musical, sometimes magical and deeply satisfying kind of storytelling" ( Los Angeles Times ) for which Leif Enger is cherished. A rollicking narrative in the most evocative of settings, this latest novel is a symphony against despair and a rallying cry for the future.

Praise for I Cheerfully Refuse An April Indie Next Pick A Most Anticipated Book of 2024 from Literary Hub "A rare, remarkable book to be kept and reread--for its beauty of language, its gentle wisdom and its steady, unflagging hope." -- Minneapolis Star Tribune "The transcendent latest from Enger ( Peace Like a River ) is at once a dystopian love story, a nautical adventure, and a meditation on loss, kindness, and natural beauty . . . This captivating narrative brims with hope." -- Publishers Weekly , starred review "The novel''s ruined world, marked by book burnings, anti-intellectual sentiment, environmental disruption and casual brutality, will feel entirely too plausible for readers. Yet within its dystopian landscape, Enger''s story incorporates a strain of fabulism . . . Like turbulent Lake Superior, I Cheerfully Refuse is filled with polarities that should contradict but somehow, instead, cohere: hopeless moments infused with light and shocking acts of cruelty depicted through beautiful, memorable prose. Although the struggle to survive leaves room for little else, Rainy still finds delight in simple, ordinary things: the post-storm sun or a ripe tomato. It''s in these moments of earnest wonder that I Cheerfully Refuse is most compelling, like the brief but glorious clearing of a tempestuous sky." -- BookPage , starred review "Magnificent . . . Comet-bright and eloquent, I Cheerfully Refuse is a perfect novel that treats dystopian circumstances as transient so long as literacy remains." -- Foreword Reviews , starred review "There''s both a playfulness and a seriousness of purpose to the latest from the Minnesota novelist, a spirit of whimsy that keeps hope flickering even in times of darkest despair." -- Kirkus Reviews "Enger''s prose is beautiful to behold." -- Booklist "Part sea adventure, part thriller, with a little magic along the way. It''s a love letter to bookstores, to reading, and to hope in a dark world, told in the lush prose we expect from the author of Peace Like a River ." -- Twin Cities Pioneer Press "A book that reads like music, both battle hymn and love song for our world. A true epic--heartbreaking, terrifyingly prophetic, but above all, radically hopeful."-- Violet Kupersmith, author of Build Your House Around My Body "A heart-racing ballad of escape, shot-through with villainy and dignity, humor and music. Like Mark Twain, Enger gives us a full accounting of the human soul, scene by scene, wave by wave." -- Josh Ritter, singer and author of The Great Glorious Goddamn of It All Praise for Virgil Wander "Enger deserves to be mentioned alongside the likes of Richard Russo and Thomas McGuane. Virgil Wander is a lush crowd-pleaser about meaning and second chances and magic."-- New York Times Book Review "[ Virgil Wander ] brings out the charm and downright strangeness of the defiantly normal." Wall Street Journal "Enger is a writer to be appreciated by anyone who cares about words."-- Seattle Times Praise for Peace Like a River "Here is an author we can trust and who we are willing to follow anywhere. Enger strikes just the right balance of instinctive storytelling, narrative play and pretty prose." -- San Francisco Chronicle "Book lovers inclined to complain that novelists don''t write gripping yarns anymore would do well to pick up a copy of Peace Like a River , a compelling blend of traditional and artfully offbeat storytelling . . . a miracle well worth witnessing."-- Boston Globe "The narrative picks up power and majesty, then thunders to a tragic, yet joyous, climax."- People "Gripping...

Virgil Wander is a lush crowd-pleaser about meaning and second chances and magic."-- New York Times Book Review "[ Virgil Wander ] brings out the charm and downright strangeness of the defiantly normal." Wall Street Journal "Enger is a writer to be appreciated by anyone who cares about words."-- Seattle Times Praise for Peace Like a River "Here is an author we can trust and who we are willing to follow anywhere. Enger strikes just the right balance of instinctive storytelling, narrative play and pretty prose." -- San Francisco Chronicle "Book lovers inclined to complain that novelists don't write gripping yarns anymore would do well to pick up a copy of Peace Like a River , a compelling blend of traditional and artfully offbeat storytelling . . . a miracle well worth witnessing."-- Boston Globe "The narrative picks up power and majesty, then thunders to a tragic, yet joyous, climax."- People "Gripping... Filled with sharp prose and vividly realized scenes, [ Peace Like a River ] has the makings of that rarest commodity: the literate bestseller." - The Minneapolis Star Tribune
