The New York Times profiled James McBride in celebration of THE HEAVEN & EARTH GROCERY STORE hitting a major milestone — 1 million copies sold! Read the link in the bio to learn more about James, how he approaches writing fiction, and more.

“There are writers who are interested in story, writers who are interested in character, writers who are interested in place and writers who are interested in voice,” said Jake Morrissey, McBride’s editor and an executive editor at Riverhead. “He manages, either by intention or by some other alchemy, to be able to hold all four of those strains in his hands at once.” by @jamesmcbrideauthor

Barnes & Noble is pleased to announce The Heaven & Earth Grocery Store by James McBride as the winner of the 2023 Barnes & Noble Book of the Year.

From the author of Deacon King Kong and National Book Award winner The Good Lord Bird comes a gorgeous novel about a small town and the bonds of community that are formed between marginalized groups to survive. James McBride has crafted a fully realized world and filled it with characters that live and breathe. McBride shows us that even in dark times, it is love and community — heaven and earth — that sustains us all.

We can not wait to get Mr. McBride’s beautiful book into your hands.
