About
Karla Cornejo Villavicencio, author of the radically experimental and award-winning essay collection The Undocumented Americans, is publishing her first novel, Catalina, which investigates the deepening harshness of the world while ruthlessly observing the cultures of wealth and power. Villavicencio’s mix of heartbreak and social justice prove she is a singular and important voice in contemporary literature.
