"Signs Preceding the End of the World," by Yuri Herrera, translated by Lisa Dillman.

Succinct but ferocious — it's slim, but I haven't stopped thinking of it for weeks! Starring a tough, determined young woman in a stark and haunting version of our world. Weird and brilliant.

DALEY FARR, bookseller and events coordinator, Milkweed Books
