The Hollow Season
A Novel
Winner of the PEN/Hemingway Award for Debut Fiction
In the small Pennsylvania town of Cresswell, a young woman returns after her mother’s sudden death to settle the family home — and discovers a box of letters that upends everything she thought she knew about her family.
The Hollow Season is a novel about inheritance: what we receive from the dead, what we pass on to those who come after us, and what we bury so deep we forget it’s there.
“Voss writes with the precision of a surgeon and the tenderness of a poet. The Hollow Season is a debut that announces a major voice.” — The New York Times Book Review
