Reviews

""Masad is deft and incisive about the sometimes-fraught nature of mother-daughter relationships, around which loaded subtext can seem to twist and twine like Christmas lights. And she affectingly plumbs the mind-bending hugeness that is losing a parent."" --The Washington Post ""There are many things for which All My Mother's Lovers should be praised for, not least of which is its cast of dynamic, complicated queer characters . . . Engaging, and confident, and often wry."" --Elena Sheppard, Los Angeles Review of Books ""A stunning excavation of the profound destabilization of grief . . . A giant-hearted and sharply funny debut."" --Laura van den Berg, author of THE THIRD HOTEL

""The past and the future meet in this smart and tender novel about a 1960s couple who encounters extraterrestrial life, an obscure sci-fi writer who lives on through her letters, and the present-day queer archivist who investigates both. Ilana Masad explores the feeling of being different, being out of place, being doubted and doubting yourself, and in the end just being. A remarkable book."" --Laila Lalami, author of THE DREAM HOTEL ""Beings is the alien abduction meets lesbian yearning novel that will restore your faith in the universe. Ilana Masad excavates the juiciness of historical archives and the otherworldly mysteries of the everyday in her most brilliant work yet."" --Ruth Madievsky, author of ALL-NIGHT PHARMACY
