Résumé
Finalist for the National Book Award for FictionWinner of the Los Angeles Times Book Prize for Fiction“A heart-wrenchingly honest, often luminescent exploration of how to find and cultivate true connections, sometimes in the unlikeliest of places . . . [Palaver is] an unshakable triumph.” ―The Washington PostOne of Time’s Must-Read Books of 2025 and Kirkus Reviews’ Best Fiction of 2025One of The Washington Post’s Best Fiction Books of the YearNamed a Most Anticipated Book by The New York Times, New York, Time, The Boston Globe, the Los Angeles Times, Rolling Stone, People, Harper’s Bazaar, Bustle, and Town & CountryA life-affirming novel of family, mending, and how we learn to love, from the award-winning Bryan Washington. In Tokyo, the son works as an English tutor and drinks his nights away with friends at a g a y bar. He’s entangled in a sexual relationship with a married man, and while he has built a chosen family in Japan, he is estranged from his mother in Houston, whose preference for the son’s oft-troubled homophobic brother, Chris, pushed him to leave home. Then, in the weeks leading up to Christmas, ten years since they last saw each other, the mother arrives uninvited on his doorstep. With only the son’s cat, Taro, to mediate, the two of them bristle at each other immediately. The mother, wrestling with memories of her youth in Jamaica and her own complicated brother, works to reconcile her good intentions with her missteps. The son struggles to forgive. But as life steers them in unexpected directions―the mother to a tentative friendship with a local bistro owner and the son to a cautious acquaintance with a new patron of the bar―they begin to see each other more clearly. During meals and conversations and an eventful trip to Nara, mother and son try as best they can to determine where “home” really is―and whether they can even find it in one another. Written with understated humor and an open heart, moving through past and present and across Houston, Ja
