Chosen by Dorothea Lasky as the winner of the 2026 APR/Honickman First Book Prize, Ellie Black’s debut collection, Revelator, is a sparkling book concerned deeply with what’s real, what’s fake, and what’s fantasy. Revelator offers up a mirror to how we invent and perform ourselves on stages, on screens, and in our lives.
