David Pittu
David Pittu is a unique addition to this list, in that his fiction catalog is smaller than others. But one listen to The Goldfinch is enough to convince us of his immense talent. Pittu's deep, raspy voice is instantly endearing and iconic – making his character work all the more impressive. We're desperate for more performances from this performer – the longer, the better.

Homegoing por Yaa Gyasi
Homegoing, simply put, is incredible. The plot, the prose, the characters, the writing…there’s not one aspect of this book that "carries" the rest. Each is, well, incredible. Author Yaa Gyasi’s debut novel is none other than a feat – an engrossing family epic spanning multiple centuries and multiple continents. The stories of two half-sisters born in 18th century Ghana, in different villages, begin this memorable novel of triumph, heartbreak and resilience. One is married off to a well-educated and wealthy Englishman. The other is shipped off to America and sold into slavery. These sisters’ stories, their children’s stories, and their children’s children’s children’s stories will stay with you long after the book ends.
