High spirits : short stories on Dominican diaspora
Camille Gomera-Tavarez (Author)
This book is a collection of eleven interconnected short stories from the Dominican diaspora. It is a book centered on one extended family--the Beléns--across multiple generations. It is set in the fictional small town of Hidalpa--and Santo Domingo and Paterson and San Juan and Washington Heights, too. It is told in a style both utterly real and distinctly magical--and its stories explore machismo, mental health, family, and identity. -- Adapted from dust jacket
