New York City, 1922. Nicolas Caraveo, a 17-year-old Latinx
transgender boy from Minnesota, has no interest in the city's
glamour. He rents a small house in West Egg from his 18-year-old
cousin, Daisy Fabrega, who lives in fashionable East Egg near her
wealthy fiance - and Nick is shocked to find that his cousin now
goes by Daisy Fay and passes seamlessly as white. Nick's neighbour
in West Egg is a mysterious young man named Jay Gatsby, whose
mansion is the stage for parties so extravagant that they both
dazzle and terrify. As Nick is pulled deeper into the glittery
culture of decadence, his feelings grow more complicated when he
finds himself falling hard for Jay's openness, idealism, and
unfounded faith in the American Dream.
A stunning collection of short stories about the intersection of family, culture, and food in the lives in teens, from bestselling and critically acclaimed authors, including Sandhya Menon, Anna-Marie McLemore, and Rin Chupeco.
A shy teenager attempts to express how she really feels through the pastries she makes at her family's pasteleria. A tourist from Montenegro desperately seeks a magic soup dumpling that can cure his fear of death. An aspiring chef realizes that butter and soul are the key ingredients to win a cooking competition that could win him the money to save his mother's life.
Welcome to Hungry Hearts Row, where the answers to most of life's hard questions are kneaded, rolled, baked. Where a typical greeting is, "Have you had anything to eat?" Where magic and food and love are sometimes one in the same.
Told in interconnected short stories, Hungry Hearts explores the many meanings food can take on beyond mere nourishment. It can symbolize love and despair, family and culture, belonging and home.
