A vibrant debut short story collection depicting the disillusionment that comes with being young and queer in Puerto Rico.The visceral, wildly imaginative stories in
Bad Seed flick through working-class scenes of contemporary Puerto Rico, where friends and lovers melt into and defy their surroundings—night clubs, ruined streets, cramped rooms with cockroaches moving in the wallsA horny high schooler spends his summer break in front of the TV; a queer love triangle unravels on the emblematic theater steps of the University of Puerto Rico; a group of friends get high and watch San Juan burn from atop a clocktower; an HIV positive college student works the night shift at a local bathhouse.
At turns playful and heartbreaking,
Bad Seed is the long overdue English-language debut of one of Puerto Rico’s most exciting up-and-coming writers.
