Folding and refolding origami frogs, extracting the symmetrical
veins from leaves, retreating to an imaginary world in his closet:
after Teresa walked out the door one July afternoon in 1994, her
son filled the void she left with a series of unusual rituals.
Twenty-three years later, he lies in bed, reconstructing the events
surrounding his mother's disappearance. Did she actually join the
Zapatistas in the jungles of Chiapas, as he was led to believe? He
dissects his memories of that fateful summer until a startling
discovery shatters his conception of his family's story. Daniel
Saldana Paris (Among Strange Victims) returns with an emotionally
rich anti-coming-of-age novel that wrestles with the inherited
privileges and crimes of masculinity.
