Some stories seem to be set in a near future; all are superbly executed and yet hard to pin down; they often leave the reader wondering: Was that realistic or fantastic? Colanzi draws power from Andean cyberpunk just as much as from classic horror writers, and this daring is matched by her energizing simultaneous use of multiplicity and fragmentation-the book's stylistic trademarks. Freely mixing worlds, she uses the Bolivian altiplano as the backdrop for an urban dystopia and blends Aymara with Spanish. Colanzi never gets bogged down; she can be brutal and direct or light-handed and subtle. Her materials are dark, but always there's the lift of her vivid sense of humor. You Glow in the Dark seizes the reader's attention (from the title on) and holds it: this is a book that announces the arrival of a major new talent"-- $c Provided by publisher. 600 10 $a Colanzi Serrate, Liliana, $d 1981- $v Translations into English. 655 7 $a Short stories. $2 lcgft. 700 1 $a Andrews, Chris, $d 1962- $e translator. 941 $a 4 952 $l USUX851 $d 20240502013019.0 952 $l ALPE516 $d 20240417020912.0 952 $l GBPF771 $d 20240402012832.0 952 $l CAPH522 $d 20240206010643.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=8953833CC4BD11EEB847D6DA21ECA4DBInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
