Fiebre Tropical

By Juli Delgado Lopera

Feminist Press

This “ebullient and assertive” novel follows a Colombian teenager’s coming-of-age and coming out as she plunges headfirst into lust and evangelism (The New York Times). Lit by the hormonal neon glow of Miami and written in rhythmic Spanglish, Juli Delgado Lopera’s critically acclaimed debut is “a novel across borders that buzzes with verve, fierceness, and raw emotion” (Ingrid Rojas Contreras).
