An American Marraige has been selected by TIME Magazine as one of the best fiction books of 2018. Ranking third on their list of ten, TIME’s Lucy Feldman writes, “In Jones’ novel, Atlanta couple Celestial and Roy are married for only a year when Roy, a black businessman, is wrongfully convicted of a violent crime. In chapters that shift between the perspectives of a husband in prison, a wife losing grip of their bond and a friend stuck in the middle, Jones illuminates the waves of injustice and heartbreak that unravel families entangled in a flawed judicial system.”
