A Good Morning America Book Club Pick! * A bighearted novel with technicolor characters, plenty of Texas swagger, and a powder keg of a plot in which marriages struggle, rivalries flare, and secrets explode, all with a clever wink toward classical mythology.For fans of Madeline Millers Circe: The Iliad meets Friday Night Lights in this muscular, captivating debut (Oprah Daily). The Briscoe family is once again the talk of their small town when March returns to East Texas two years after he was caught having an affair with his brothers wife. His mother, June, hardly welcomes him back with open arms. Her husbands own past affairs have made her tired of being the long-suffering spouse. Is it, perhaps, time for a change? Within days of Marchs arrival, someone is dead, marriages are upended, and even the strongest of alliances are shattered. In the end, the ties that hold them together might be exactly what drag them all down. An expansive tour de force, Olympus, Texas cleverly weaves elements of classical mythology into a thoroughly modern family saga, rich in drama and psychological complexity. After all, at some point, dont we all wonder: What good is this destructive force we call love? Review Center for Fiction’s First Novel Prize NomineeThere is a surplus of buried hurt and unspoken disappointments within the Briscoe family. It may be difficult for these characters to realize their flaws and tangled desires, but it sure is pleasurable to read about them...I experienced the characters’ grief and regret as if they were my own.-New York Times Book ReviewThe Iliad meets Friday Night Lights in this muscular, captivating debut that reimagines Greek myths in a backwater east Texas town. The abrupt arrival of a ne’er-do-well son disrupts the fragile balance amid a family plagued by erotic trysts, broken promises, and social envy. Readers will thrill to Swann’s classical allusion.-Oprah DailyThe antics of the gods on Mount Olympus would rival the plot of the most salacious soap opera. Swann moves the action to East Texas and the back-stabbing members of the Briscoe family, combining ‘Dallas’-style narrative juice with literary panache and a classical pedigree.-Los Angeles Times“A gorgeous debut that conjures one small town and the big emotions of its wealthiest family, the Briscoes, whose saga plays out over six days of pain, rage, and love.”-People MagazineA unique way to disrupt the conventional family saga...When it comes to family-fiction tropes, Swann has found a way to be persistently, often admirably irreverent.”-USA TodayAn action-filled, devastating tale of homecoming.-Minneapolis Star TribuneOlympus, Texas is the most wildly entertaining novel I’ve read in a long time, and Stacey Swann is a writer to watch.” -Richard Russo, author of Chances Are . . .Olympus, Texas is sheer delight: hilarious, heartbreaking, true. I loved this novel.-Amanda Eyre Ward, author of The JetsettersThe endearing characters of Olympus, Texas gallop through a plot luscious with secrets and scandals. Escape to Olympus for the rollicking fun. Stay for the heartbreakingly lyrical writing and tender message about the enduring gift that is family love.-Sarah Bird, best-selling author of Daughter of a Daughter of a QueenAn uncanny twin-myth of modern Texas and ancient Greece that feels familiar and strange, loving and painful-like family itself. Olympus, Texas is an achievement of sustained brilliance, and an audacious opening to Swann’s fated journey into the canon of greats. -Smith Henderson, author of Fourth of July CreekHere is a lightning field of a novel: enthralling, vast, dark, bright, beautiful and dangerous. I was hypnotized by it. Stacey Swann is an unforgettable force, and Olympus, Texas will carry you and embrace you with all its heart, strength, and hope.-Paul Yoon, author of Run Me to EarthA moving and exhilarating debut! With exquisite prose and unerring pace, Swann guides us thro
