b'The Delivery\npor Margarita Garc\xeda Robayo\n\nFrom the acclaimed author of Fish Soup, a wickedly self-aware novel of family, memory, and possibility just this side of the uncanny. A tolerable, ordinary life: an adequate, if boring, freelance job; reliably irritating video calls with your sister; half-hearted plans for the future (a writing residency, a child); and, in the middle of your half-furnished apartment, an enormous crate. Unopened, delivered days ago, and getting in the way. In The Delivery, whats inside is your estranged mother, and her arrival brings to a head the tentative motions youve made to examine the past and the subtle fissures in the life youve built. Semi-ordinary happenings take on an otherworldly cast when you look at them sideways, but nothing is stranger, in this place far from home, than the tenuous bonds of family that hold us together, or dont.'
