Nice to see on this new list by Reader’s Digest “36 Must-Read Books by Contemporary Hispanic Authors” published this month

Speculative Fiction for Dreamers.

My story “Jean” is in it highlighting the diasporic Puerto Rican experience here a result of Operation Bootstrap on the island. Jean won the 2022 Chautauqua Janus Prize–currently this isn’t listed on most book selling sites nor publisher, I tried and still nudge them! But in addition to all the book’s award nominations, it does have an award-winning story in it, too. The nice thing about an anthology like this is you can sample so many works from an array of artists in this beautiful book. Even LeVar Burton picked one of them for his podcast.
