The House of Broken Angels (Luis Alberto Urrea)
New York: Little, Brown, 2018

A large family reunites for the funeral of their matriarch and, almost immediately, for a big birthday party for her dying eldest son, Big Angel. Urrea introduces his readers to multiple generations of the family, and to their multiple joys and sorrows.

Una gran familia se reúne para celebrar el funeral de su matriarca y, casi de inmediato, para festejar también el cumpleaños de Big Ángel, el primogénito que está a punto de morir. La narrativa se ocupa de varias generaciones de la familia y, con ello, de sus múltiples alegrías y tristezas.
