"Cleyvis Natera has written a powerful and arresting novel with unforgettable characters. Neruda on the Park is the book we need and the reason I read." --Angie Cruz, author of Dominicana "Cleyvis Natera is a writer to watch. Her excellent debut novel is lyrical, absorbing, and slyly funny." --Jenny Offill, New York Times bestselling author of Weather "Armed with wit and a warm sense of humor, Cleyvis Natera deftly scales questions as huge as the luxury building that looms over her characters' lives. But pulsing at the heart of Neruda on the Park is a story more intimate, tender, and timeless--about a mother, her daughter, and what secrets slip through the cracks in their bond....A beautifully observed and propulsive debut." --Dawnie Walton, author of The Final Revival of Opal & Nev " Neruda on the Park is a wondrous debut. There's so much to love: the propulsive story, the indelible characters--I can't remember any more memorable, more richly drawn, than Luz and Eusebia--the vivid portrait of the lives of Dominican immigrants. Cleyvis Natera's novel, which artfully, imaginatively, convincingly explores home and the lengths one goes to protect it, love and womanhood, class and the promise of the American dream, is a compelling, crucial work of fiction." --Mitchell S. Jackson, Pulitzer Prize-winning author of Survival Math " Neruda on the Park is a lush, beautifully layered look at class, culture, and change. Natera's prose is intricate, tender, and perfectly calibrated--the Guerrero family will stay with me forever. This is a tremendous debut novel from a profoundly gifted writer." --Kimberly King Parsons, National Book Award longlisted author of Black Light, "Cleyvis Natera had me in her thrall from beginning to end. Neruda on the Park speaks to so many of our current challenges with moral imagination, grace, and wickedly good, page-turning storytelling." --Julia Alvarez, bestselling author of Afterlife and How the García Girls Lost Their Accents "A lush, beautifully layered look at class, culture, and change. . . . Natera's prose is intricate, tender, and perfectly calibrated. This is a tremendous debut novel from a profoundly gifted writer." --Kimberly King Parsons, National Book Award-longlisted author of Black Light " Neruda on the Park is a book so honest, so implicating, so liberating that it is at once beautiful and terrifying. . . . A loud triumph that caresses like a whisper." --Robert Jones, Jr., New York Times bestselling author of The Prophets " Neruda on the Park is as poignant and perceptive as it is sexy and thrilling, the rare book that manages to be chilling and fun and profound all at once. . . . A remarkable feat of imagination from a wholly original writer." --Naima Coster, New York Times bestselling author of What's Mine and Yours "Natera is a writer to watch. Her excellent debut novel is lyrical, absorbing, and slyly funny." --Jenny Offill, New York Times bestselling author of Weather "Natera has written a powerful and arresting novel with unforgettable characters. Neruda on the Park is the book we need and the reason I read." --Angie Cruz, author of Dominicana "Armed with wit and a warm sense of humor, Natera deftly scales questions as huge as the luxury building that looms over her characters' lives. . . . A beautifully observed and propulsive debut." --Dawnie Walton, author of The Final Revival of Opal & Nev "An insightful narrative that sifts through the layers of the family, lovers, and places we choose to find home in." --Elizabeth Acevedo, National Book Award-winning author of The Poet X "A dazzling triumph...Every beat of Natera's gorgeous prose pulses with urgency, humanity, and a whole lot of heart." --Zakiya Dalila Harris, New York Times bestselling author of The Other Black Girl "A wondrous debut . . . Natera's novel is a compelling, crucial work of fiction." --Mitchell S. Jackson, Pulitzer Prize-winning author of Survival Math

- v***v (2054)- Feedback left by buyer.Past monthVerified purchaseAlthough this book was not as described, with no picture of it in the listing, the seller communicated well and quickly gave me a full refund while letting me keep it. The minimal packaging left the book a bit vulnerable (typical for ThriftBooks), but it did arrive safely and timely. As usual, it’s hit or miss with this seller, but often times you can get great values, and their customer service is always very good. Many other sellers with millions of transactions don’t even communicate.
