"Portia Elan’s "Homebound" is a hymn to found families--the kin we choose rather than inherit--& it’s fitting that it reads that way, assembled from allegiances." ~The Guardian

Jesus Sierra is such an anchor in the Bay Area #literary community! We love his insightful #essay in @altajournal.bsky.social on Manuel Muñoz's short #story “Anyone Can Do It.”
We're thrilled to welcome Jesus to Babylon Salon this Saturday, June 13 at 5:30pm! www.babylonsalon.com

The short story “Anyone Can Do It” in Manuel Muñoz’s collection, the February CBC selection, illuminates immigrant hardship.
At the core of this collection is Wade’s complex relationship with his father, whose presence is at once both painful and familiar.
