Written by six Latino authors Author: Written by six Latino authors Genre: Short story anthology on migration Synopsis: This anthology brings together the voices of Latin American authors living in Houston, Texas, who explore migration from multiple perspectives. Through twelve short stories, readers encounter the experiences of those who left, those who stayed, and those who cross both physical and emotional borders.

With prose that flows between Spanish and English, the authors capture the impact of migration on language, worldview, and sense of belonging. Through traditions, food, and memories, this collection immerses us in the journey of rebuilding oneself far from home—navigating between exclusion and inclusion—and discovering in writing a new form of belonging.
