Rubén Degollado recommends
The Only Sound is the Wind (2024)
Pascha Sotolongo
"Pascha Sotolongo's collection The Only Sound is the Wind gives us characters who are navigating migrations of body and spirit. Through lyrical and empathetic prose, Sotolongo makes us love these people, and we find ourselves swept along with them in each story's inexorable movement towards their, and now our, new realities. Sotolongo's beautiful debut is proof that the short story is not done with us yet."
Open Heart (2023)
Elvira Lindo
"Lindo's Open Heart is an exploration of the imperfect ways we love each other and how we forgive. She has done something wonderful here, given us a novel that is akin to a master sculptor's high relief, where we see pictures of one family at different stages, with enough unsparing yet loving detail to see each life individually in all its broken beauty."
