About this item
Melissa Mogollon's debut novel, "Oye," delivers a captivating narrative through a series of one-sided phone calls from Luciana to her sister, Mari. Set against the backdrop of an impending hurricane in Miami, the story follows Luciana, the youngest member of a Colombian American family, as she grapples with unexpected challenges and familial dynamics.

Luciana, typically relegated to the sidelines, emerges as the voice of reason when her eccentric grandmother, Abue, refuses to evacuate. Abue's refusal, coupled with a shocking medical diagnosis during the storm, thrusts Luciana into the role of caretaker and confidante. As Abue moves in with Luciana, their bond deepens, offering a welcome distraction from Luciana's tumultuous relationships with her mother and absent sister.

Through Luciana's witty and candid narration, readers are immersed in a whirlwind of emotions, from laughter to heartache. Mogollon expertly weaves together themes of family, identity, and resilience, capturing the complexities of adolescence and the power of intergenerational connections.

As Luciana navigates the challenges of her disrupted senior year of high school, she grapples with her own desires and aspirations while shouldering the weight of Abue's secrets. The novel's unique format, resembling an intimate conversation between sisters, adds depth and intimacy to the storytelling, inviting readers to become immersed in Luciana's world.

"Oye" is a testament to the strength found in familial bonds and the courage required to confront life's uncertainties. Mogollon's vibrant prose and authentic characters make for a compelling and unforgettable read that celebrates the beauty of resilience and the power of rewriting one's own story.
