Novels

The Affairs of Others, Picador

“From start to finish, Loyd’s prose flows exquisitely through the story, as she limns the depths of the protagonist’s mind, the complexity of human intimacy, and the idiosyncrasies of each new character with the grace of a seasoned novelist.”
—Vanity Fair

The Pain of Pleasure, Roundabout

“Amy Grace Loyd's writing is intelligent and graceful, lighting up the mind and the body, reaching my brain and heart and spirit. A surprising and bold fusion of ideas and sensory detail that stimulates and illuminates."
Charles Yu, author of National Book Award-winning Interior Chinatown
