We’ve had a busy month with the release of Sordidez and exciting news about a couple exciting awards.
E.G. Condé’s Sordidez at the LA Review of Books
Taryne Jade Taylor has penned an extensive review of Condé’s novella, which situates the book within the history of a Latinx speculative fiction canon. The review also argues for the importance of dialogue between specific branches of Indigenous Futurism, such as the Taínofuturism which Condé is helping to found and the Mesofuturism with which it dialogues in the novella.
The review spent some time on the front page of the LA Review of Books website and how can be found here:
