Publisher's Summary

This story was originally published in Day One, a weekly literary journal dedicated to short fiction and poetry from emerging writers.

After the violent, shadowy events surrounding his father's disappearance and his siblings' disbandment, Martín flees Mexico City with his wife, newborn son, and dog. Isolated and homesick in Madrid, Martín awakes one sticky, hot morning, quietly overwhelmed by the circumstances - his growing aversion to his son, the dog's sudden illness, and the vague unresolved danger from his abandoned homeland. Gripping, disturbing, and moving, "Madrid" is a story about the struggle of a man who, estranged from his home and traumatized by his past, is trying to be a father after the loss of his own.
