About this listen

A series of linked stories following the members of a large Latinx family exploring the pressure points of familial obligations and the complexities of love.

From the author of Malas comes a short story collection that centers the challenges of family, with characters constantly trying to navigate a web of allegiances and seeking breathing space for themselves. A young boy from the barrio settles a wager his dead father made with a rich man. A sister tries to make sense of her brother’s career as a bull rider. A group of kids searches for the bogeyman haunting their grandmother’s house. A suburban wife aches to understand her volatile husband.

All these individual’s dreams, desires, and fears swirl together to form a portrait of a Latinx family—one that’s imperfect and difficult but truer to life than any one perspective could be.
