Voices from the Abyss explores themes such as, death, family, identity, loneliness, survival, and immigration. The short stories in this collection offer a blend between speculative fiction and contemporary realism. Many of them highlight Latin American experiences, while another imagines a future where the dependency on technology has driven people to become increasingly isolated. Within these pages, you'll encounter a teenage boy learning to accept his tragic death, a college student processing his grief by talking to his brother's dead girlfriend, and a bilingual attempting to come to terms with his identity in an oppressive monolingual reality. This collection embodies the eternal struggle between light and dark through voices that are often overlooked.Accessibility Statement
