Home Again Book

Fiction. Latino/Latina Studies. "Yglesias is a writer of considerable subtlety and perceptiveness, with a strong sense of narrative form"—Kirkus Reviews. Having left the Anglo-Saxon gentry of Boston's Louisberg Square and the contentious left-wing intelligentsia of New York's Greenwich Village, Pinpin, a retired novelist, returns to his childhood home of Tampa. But as soon as Pinpin sets foot back in his parents' house—against his will and his better judgement—he finds himself snared in the mire of family politics and demands, with one cousin telling him not to trust another. Not knowing what to think, Pinpin is dragged along on a bizarre and hilarious quest through the back streets of Tampa on a mission to rescue his misguided young grand-niece.
