About

"The Dinner Guest is a novel, with the feel of documentary non-fiction. It connects two life-changing events -- the very public death of Ybarra's grandfather, and the more private pain as her mother dies from cancer and Gabriela cares for her. Devastating yet luminous, the book is an investigation, marking the arrival of a talented new voice in international fiction."--Jacket.
