New and upcoming books
Pilar Quintana recommends
The Winds of Maracaibo (2026)
María Elena Morán
"With its rich and unrestrained prose, which gives no pause, which is like a river or a marathon, Moran brings chaos to life. A novel to feel the tragedy of Venezuela and its migrants in one's own flesh. A new voice worth reading."
Pelican Girls (2024)
Julia Malye
"This book fascinates me. It's moving in every way: a celebration of complicity and love among women and a summary of their difficult lives. It has everything in it: a great story, landscapes, atmosphere, depth and a finely wrought prose. It makes you feel that you are reading one of those literary classics that make you believe in contemporary fiction again--told with spark and excitement, and with the freshness only a young writer can give."
Dogs of Summer (2022)
Andrea Abreu
"Dogs of Summer is like the tide. A force of nature. It drags you. It submerges you. And, all of a sudden, it leaves you stranded on a rich and prophetic insular world of women and low, grey, clouds that merge with the sea. It is pure poetry. A book that carries you and makes you feel a place."
