Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Finalist for 2020 National Book Critics Circle Award in Fiction Longlisted for the 2020 National Book Award for Fiction Finalist for the 2021 Aspen Words Literary Prize Mingling the earthy with the otherworldly, these ten stories chronicle ineffable events in ordinary lives. In Kenan’s fictional territory of Tims Creek, North Carolina, an old man rages in his nursing home, a parson beats up an adulterer, a rich man is haunted by a hog, and an elderly woman turns unwitting miracle worker. A retired plumber travels to Manhattan, where Billy Idol sweeps him into his entourage. An architect who lost his famous lover to AIDS reconnects with a high-school fling. Howard Hughes seeks out the woman who once cooked him butter beans. Shot through with humor and seasoned by inventiveness and maturity, Kenan riffs on appetites of all kinds, on the eerie persistence of history, and on unstoppable lovers and unexpected salvations. If I Had Two Wings is a rich chorus of voices and visions, dreams and prophecies, marked by physicality and spirit. Kenan’s prose is nothing short of wondrous.

Book excerpt: Throughout history, aviation has been a field filled with adventure and romance, daredevils and heroes, great challenges and big dreams. "If We Had Wings" captures the essence of man's ongoing fascination with flight, from early Renaissance scientists who imagined fanciful flying machines through the technological breakthroughs that launched humans into space. The passion to fly and the corresponding advances in aviation have always changed our world irrevocably, and "If We Had Wings" offers both the tragedies and the triumphs of the continued attempts to reach even higher. These compelling stories are enhanced by removable documents -- ranging from diary pages of a World War I airman to letters that Amelia Earhart wrote to her parents in the event of her death. These will all make the material come to life like never before.

Book excerpt: "A story told in sound, movement and words about 9-year-old B ... just plain B, like the letter, like the grade, who is about to turn 10 and is not happy about that! B knows, really knows, that before she could walk, she could fly. She is desperate to remember how before the dreaded birthday comes. In a summer thunderstorm, B's treehouse is hit by lightening, and a mysterious stranger appears. She cannot speak except in strange squawks, single words and occasionally the letters 'KWAQQ'--the call letters of the plane Amelia Earhart was flying when she disappeared and was never found. Is this creature a bird, an older woman escaped from a senior care unit or could she possibly be Amelia herself? Together they must help each other remember how to fly--literally and metaphorically."--

Book excerpt: Yeshua Star is deeply ensconced in a level of the world most people do not even know exists, let alone recognize. Her world is one of demons, dream stalkers and ancient immortals who were once worshipped as gods but now co-exist with the rest of society-like Morpheus, the Greek god of dreams who now runs the local opium den. The cynical but sassy Yeshua Star is an unofficial contractor for the Church, handling those tasks that go hand in hand with a public policy of disavowal. When the angels come knocking on Yeshua's door, claiming she is an incarnated angel, she and her self-appointed sidekick Chaz find themselves pulled into one of the toughest situations they have ever had to face. Armageddon is looming on the horizon, with one faction of the angels preparing to set the Beast free from the pit of the Abyss. Using all of the knowledge they can piece together from the various groups and their hidden agendas, Yeshua has to make a major decision that will decide the fate of humanity-does she stop it-or let it happen?
