Stacy Carlson’s latest novel, The Gyre, won the 2026 IndieReader Discovery Award for Historical Fiction and the 2025 Electric Book Award. IndieReader described The Gyre as “glittering with historical detail and full of psychological intrigue. It conjures an exceptionally realized tale of piety, madness, and a search for some kind of belonging.” Publisher’s Weekly called her debut novel, Among the Wonderful, “Intelligent, engrossing, and utterly unique.” Her essays and fiction have appeared in Novus Literary and Arts Journal, Tin House, Post Road, Inkwell, Sparkle+Blink, and elsewhere. She is the recipient of fellowships from The Mesa Refuge, The Community of Writers, The Arctic Circle, Djerassi Resident Artists Program, and Signal Fire. Her background also includes work as a historical ecologist, hot springs caretaker, and hiking guide in Big Sur. Stacy grew up in Seattle, lived for many years in Oakland, and now calls Minneapolis home.
