The Witches of El Paso (2024)
Luis Jaramillo
"Sexy, smart and soulful, Luis Jaramillo's The Witches of El Paso pulls us across borders and time to get to the essence of what it means for families to survive this beautiful, fractured world."

The Storm We Made (2024)
Vanessa Chan
"Vanessa Chan's The Storm We Made is a phenomenon unto itself. This is no mere debut, but rather the summoning of a story buried so deeply in a nation that it could only surface with a talent great enough to do it justice."
thumb
Sea Change (2023)
Gina Chung
"A wild blessing of a debut. Gina Chung's curiosity, precision and grace have created a world both strange and recognizable, the kind of place you can find a version of yourself you did not know existed, and call her home."
