Beloved continues to be one of the most important American novels, in my opinion. Tragic and harrowing, but important.

Ex:
The Frozen River, Ariel Lawhorn
Long Bright River, Liz Moore
A River Enchanted, Rebecca Ross
The River, Peter Heller
The River of Doubt, Candice Millard
River East, River West, Aube Rey Lescure
River Mumma, Zalika Reid-Benta
Swift River, Essie Chambers
There are Rivers in the Sky, Elif Shafak
The Night the River Wept, Lo Patrick
