Akil Kumarasamy recommends
The Goth House Experiment (2023)
SJ Sindu
"A whirlwind of a collection. Bold, timely stories of what it means to live in this surreal world. Sindu';s writing is electric."
Monstrilio (2023)
Gerardo Sámano Córdova
"Monstrilio is the monster story about grief I've been craving. Bloody and full of longing, it gets under your skin and doesn't let you go. A thrilling and heartbreaking ride from Mexico City to NYC to Berlin, brilliantly capturing what it means to lose someone you love with ferocious tenderness. Gerardo Samano Cordova is an international revelation and one of the boldest new voices writing today."
