Oprah Daily, Vulture, Today.com, Elle, and Lit Hub all named A New York Times Editor's Choice a Most Anticipated Book of 2023.

“A beautiful celebration of "the glorious pleasure of erecting something new," whether it be a piece of art or a human connection, but also a heartbreaking book. “From “one of the finest and bravest novelists at work today,” (Vulture) award-winning writer Idra Novey has conjured a novel with two determined, unforgettable female voices that is “astonishing and singular” in honesty (Rumaan Alam).

Take What You Need is set in the Appalachian Allegheny Mountains and follows the parallel lives of Leah, Jean's beloved but estranged stepdaughter, who is looking for a clean break from her rural childhood. In Leah's metropolitan existence with her young family, she's uncovered minimal about Jean, the amount she misses her stepmother's hard-won bits of knowledge and euphoric absence of hindrance. However, since Jean passed away, Leah must return to sort through what was left behind.

Leah's findings are mind-boggling: Jean has made enormous sculptures out of scraps from the area's industrial past to fill her drab house. In addition, there is a young man living in the house now who has no idea what part he played in Jean's final years and in her art.

Idra Novey focuses on the joys and challenges of family, the ease with which we can let distance silence conflict, and the power we can derive from creative pursuits with a great deal of verve and humor.

Take What You Need explores the ongoing mystery of the people we love the most with passion and resonance. This novel shows how something new can be built from things other people have given up, like art, unexpected friendship, or a new sense of self-satisfaction. Idra Novey at her best in this.
