Without giving much away, I’ll say that as usual, you can expect the unexpected. Kevin has a knack of making characters messy yet instantly likeable. I was delighted in the premise right away and looked forward to every new chapter as it unfolded. In <em>Run for the Hills</em>, you may believe you know where things are going, but happily still be surprised. It’s a literal thrill ride. I finished an early advanced copy way too fast, but I’m overjoyed that I get to revisit Mad, Rube and all these familial characters when the most skilful narrator Marin Ireland—who brought life to my other Wilson fave, <em>Nothing to See Here</em>—‘re-read’ the book to me, tackling Wilson’s new world of words for the audiobook.”</p> </p> <p><strong>— Ernio, River Bend Bookshop</strong></p> <p><em>Out May 13, 2025</em></p> <a href="https://libro.fm/audiobooks/9780063317543" class="call-to-action" target="_blank">View the audiobook</a> </div> </div> <hr class="wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity"/> <div class="block__audiobook-large"> <div class="cover"> <div class="number"><span>#</span>11</div> <a href="https://libro.fm/audiobooks/9798217071692" target="_blank"> <img decoding="async" src="https://cdn.libro.fm/assets/covers/9798217071692_1120.jpg" /> </a> <figure><audio controls="" src="https://samples.libro.fm/9798217071692_sample.m4a"></audio></figure> </div> <div class="content"> <h2>The Emperor of Gladness</h2> <p class="author"><strong>By Ocean Vuong</strong></p> <p><p>In <em>The Emperor of Gladness</em>, Ocean Vuong tells the story of Hai, a young man on the brink of suicide, who is saved by Grazina, an elderly widow suffering from dementia.
