Publisher's summary

Estan desnudos. El muchacho acuna a la muchacha. Su pie les cobriza. Estan recostados en un soca victoriano rodeados de ceramica egipcia de carton, un tigre salvaje disecado, un tambor de juguete y cocoteros glaseados. Una pradera Americana se extiende tras ellos en apagados colores al oleo.

Las sombras tiznan los musculos de los brazos, muslos y pantorrillas del chica. Su pene esta flacido. Tiene los pomulos salientes, como si la talla de sus huesos se estuviese deleitando cuando Ella los esculpio.

La muchacha esta recostada contra el. Hay un oceano en sus ojos. Nubes de cabello le camuflan un pecho. En su mejilla florece una orquidea.


Poetic, transporting, and heartbreaking, this debut novel traces the lives of three generations of courageous Dominican women.

One Woman from the Dominican Republic

This novel sensitively and knowingly problematizes notions of exotic erotics in unflinching terms, with a critical overview of the Dominican Republic during the so-called “American Century.”
