Migrations | 
Bailed on this #netgalley pick at 75%. Finished 8/11 short stories & can‘t bring myself to read the rest. The stories are about the Puerto Rican experience. Learned some PR history but the Puerto Ricans in this book are crass, physically violent in self-expression, angry and bitter. Weird dissonance in the smoothly gentle narrative voice and inner thoughts of the characters and then a violent eruption, acting out that didn‘t seem to have a basis.
