About Book
THERE IS A RIO GRANDE IN HEAVEN is an electrifying debut story collection about Central American identity that spans past, present, and future worlds to reveal what happens when your life is no longer your own.
Blazing with heart, humor, and inimitable style, THERE IS A RIO GRANDE IN HEAVEN subverts everything we think we know about migration and its consequences, capturing what it means to take up a new life—whether willfully or forced—with piercing and brilliant clarity. A gifted new storyteller and trailblazing stylist, Reyes not only transports to other worlds but alerts us to the heartache and injustice of our own.
