Join us and our host Evan for a special book club celebrating the new release from Carribean Fragoza, Eat The Mouth That Feeds You! We'll read and discuss this book of surreal and gothic stories and then in June, we'll be joined by the author for a live stream where you can bring discussion points and questions to the chat!

About Eat The Mouth That Feeds You:

In visceral, embodied prose, Fragoza's imperfect characters are drawn with a sympathetic tenderness as they struggle against circumstances and conditions designed to defeat them. A young woman returns home from college, only to pick up exactly where she left off: a smart girl in a rundown town with no future. A mother reflects on the pain and pleasures of being inexorably consumed by her small daughter, whose penchant for ingesting grandma's letters has extended to taking bites of her actual flesh. A brother and sister watch anxiously as their distraught mother takes an ax to their old furniture, and then to the backyard fence, until finally she attacks the family's beloved lime tree.

Victories are excavated from the rubble of personal hardship, and women's wisdom is brutally forged from the violence of history that continues to unfold on both sides of the US-Mexico border.
