Indie Books to Look Forward to (Summer 2021)

It's time for our second dispatch of our curated choices of new books coming in 2021, and in this guide we wanted to highlight some excellent titles published by independent publishers. If you're in the mood for short story collections, try Yes Yes More More by Anna Wood (The Indigo Press) or Filthy Animals by Brandon Taylor, author of the 2020 Booker Prize-shortlisted novel, Real Life (both published by Daunt Books Publishing). For novels about family dynamics and societal tensions, there's Small Rivers by Harry Gallon (Dead Ink) or Elena Knows by Claudia Piñeiro (published by Edinburgh-based Charco Press). Keep reading for even more recommendations from the best of indie publishing this summer!
