Winner of The 2024 George Garrett Fiction Prize, selected by Kaveh Akbar

"We ought to say a feeling of and, a feeling of if, a feeling of but, and a feeling of by," William James writes. In About, Above, Around, fifty prepositions reveal the subtle syntax of our inner lives, offering a new yet ancient vocabulary for charting how feeling moves within and between and around us. Kaveh Akbar, selecting the collection for the George Garrett Prize, says: "About, Above, Around is thrillingly ambitious and deliciously readable, a remarkable vortex of place and mind and spirit illuminating how our lives are shaped, and how we're held within them. Mayer has given us one of the most dexterous, impressive books I've read in ages."
