Reseña del libro "Broken In: A Novel in Stories (en Inglés)"

Broken In: A Novel in Stories was a semifinalist for the Hidden River Arts 2020 Hawk Mountain Short Story Collection Award and Finalist for Greece's 2021 Eyelands Book Award (Short Stories). The chapters are casual but carefully arranged spokes, radiating out from a rainy evening. At first glance it's the story of an accident near JJ's Bistro involving a drunk driver and some parked cars. With each chapter, the picture grows more complex. Each character faces the challenge of being broken in, one way or another.... Gabe is the mixed-race bartender with a sore heart. Lisa is about to confront the hyper-sexual reality of Bangkok. Rob died, because ambulance and police were all racing to the scene. A burglar schemes to steal Jeff's sanity. A star chef knows it's her fault that a man is dead. Jeremy should tell his wife he has an incurable disease. Sally mourns her missing children. What seemed so clear cut (a rainy night, bistro patrons, an accident) is an event with layers, and consequences, and after-effects. The circles will go on rippling long after the reader finishes the book.
