“A quiet, thoughtful story about coming-of-age at middle age.” Kirkus released a starred review of Big Familia by Tomas Moniz, coming November 2019 from Acre Books. This is a story of making family and making mistakes, of rending and of mending. As a Latinx queer father with a mixed-race daughter, Juan exemplifies the ways identity connects and divides us. With wit, insight, and tenderness, Big Familia explores the complexities of desire, devotion, and the mysteries of the heart.
