The first novel by Pulitzer Prize-winning author Paul Harding in 10 years, This Other Eden continues in the vein of his beloved debut Tinkers, as Harding displays his mastery of historical fiction and transcendent, breathtaking prose.

This Other Eden draws on the true story of Malaga Island, a small island off the coast of Maine, which became one of North America’s first racially integrated communities. Harding's latest is a mesmerizing story that explores the hopes, dreams, and resilience of those perceived not to fit in a world that’s brutally intolerant of difference.
