From celebrated storyteller Josh Weil comes The Great Glass Sea (Grove), an ambitious epic of love and loss swathed in all the magic of Russian folklore — set against the dystopian backdrop of an all-too-real alternate present. Twins Yarik and Dima have been inseparable since childhood. Years later, they now labor together at the Oranzheria, a sea of glass erected over acres of cropland lit by space mirrors. But an encounter with the Oranzheria's billionaire owner changes their lives forever, and soon both men find themselves poster boys for opposing ideologies that threaten to destroy not only the lives of those they love but the love that has bonded them since birth.
