Laura Esquivel recommends

Monarca (2022)
Eva Aridjis and Leopoldo Gout
"A work of art. In each of the pages, you will feel the flow of a powerful energy which will murmur to each of your cells that it is time to come out of hiding, to open the windows, to breathe freely, to dress colorfully... to fly."

L.A. Weather (2021)
María Amparo Escandón
"María Amparo Escandón is bold. Who dares to write about the weather in Los Angeles? Unlike the warm and benign climate cliché that can so easily be ignored, the complicated richness that makes up the Alvarado family can be appreciated from the first paragraph."

Sea Monsters (2019)
Chloe Aridjis
"A searingly hypnotic work, a dazzling tale of enchantment and disenchantment."
