Alejandro Heredia in The Bronx!
Saturday, 2/28, 12pm at BronxArtSpace
Come celebrate the Official Bronx Homeboy Paperback Release Event for LOCA by Alejandro Heredia. Heredia, a Bronx native, will join the conversation!
Alejandro Heredia is a queer Afro-Dominican writer. He has received fellowships from Lambda Literary and Kenyon Review, and won the 2019 Gold Line Press Fiction Chapbook Contest. He holds an MFA in fiction from Hunter College.
Loca follows one daring year in the lives of young people living at the edge of their own patience and desires. With expansive grace, it reveals both the grueling conditions that force people to migrate and the possibility of friendship as home when family, nations, and identity groups fall short.
