The Travelers (Paperback)

'The Travelers is a rare debut that heralds what should be a long and promising career.' - The Times Literary Supplement 

'An astoundingly audacious debut.' - Oprah Magazine 

'Regina Porter's sprawling, sparkling debut novel... is an exhilarating ride. Porter is a wickedly astute chronicler of human foibles. In her hands, this series of glimpses feels something like life itself.' - The Guardian 

'Spanning six decades and three continents...[The Travelers] is held together by an elegant web of connections... Porter has a striking habit of telescoping time to chart individual trajectories... The often breathtaking immediacy and assurance of Porter's prose carries you through.' - The Daily Mail 

'If you're looking for a poetic, spare, sometimes funny tale of ordinary people pining for meaningful connections - or if you're someone who wishes Raymond Carver had published a novel - you have arrived.' - The New York Times
