Set in vibrant, multicultural Miami, The Last Flight of Jose Luis
Balboa is an absorbing debut collection of short stories from a
gifted writer. Gonzalo Barr captures this international hub city in
all its roiling guises, from the opulence of South Beach to the
ferocity of Little Havana. Barr introduces us to unforgettable
characters -- an unscrupulous newscaster, a Lincoln Road bar
manager, a beautiful but cruel teenaged heartbreaker, and the title
character, a suicidal Latin pop star -- in situations that teem
with humor and brutality, absurdity and poignance. This remarkable
debut offers a vivid portrait of a city defined by a blur of
cultures.
