<b>A <i>NEW YORK TIMES</i> NOVEL EVERYONE WILL BE TALKING ABOUT IN 2026 </b>-<b> A <i>TIME</i> MOST ANTICIPATED BOOK OF 2026</b> <b>"Simply put, a work of genius." --Abraham Verghese, author of <i>The Covenant of Water</i></b> <b>A mysterious accident along a country road sparks an awakening and an investigation in Pulitzer Prize-winning playwright and acclaimed novelist Ayad Akhtar's most daring work yet--a visionary novel of spiritual transformation in an age of fracture.</b>When a hit-and-run shatters more than his body, a writer is caught between revelation and madness as an uncanny pull toward a brilliant campus colleague ensnares him in a scandal that threatens to destroy them both. What begins as a provocative portrait of academic and cultural warfare deepens into erotic entanglement, the exposure of a family secret, and the mystery surrounding the narrator's accident--both the violence and its aftermath. Moving between rural America and Europe, Islam and Christianity, the intimate and the metaphysical, <i>The Radiance</i> is of our American moment and beyond it--asking not only what has broken, but what radiance remains.
