WE THE ANIMALS by Justin Torres

Two years ago Justin Torres won the National Book Award for Fiction but, fourteen years ago, he teetered on precarity. At times, he worked as a dog walker and a bookseller. He wrote. He published this debut novel… things started to change.

Suddenly, people said “Tell us your thoughts on contemporary Latinx literature.” Suddenly, readers had access to a new and personal title: all about family, queerness, and the in-between.
