BOOKSELLERS LOVE THE REVOLUTIONARIES TRY AGAIN

“The Revolutionaries Try Again is a daring novel that pits youthful idealism against persistent and inescapable corruption. Mauro Javier Cardenas is an exciting new voice in Latin American literature, and his debut crackles with an exuberance that readers of Valeria Luiselli, Julio Cortázar, and Horacio Castellanos Moya will love.”

—Stephen Sparks, Green Apple Books on the Park

“Written in rapid-fire, playful, musical prose, Mauro Javier Cardenas’s riot of a debut, The Revolutionaries Try Again, follows three longtime friends who are facing the evils of dictatorship in Ecuador. It’s one of my favorite books of 2016 and one I’m eager to share with other readers. I would tattoo lines from Mauro Javier Cardenas’s brilliant debut on my body.”

—Caitlin Luce Baker, University Book Store

“Fans of dense, brilliant, and mind-bending Latin American lit have a treat on their hands in September. The Revolutionaries Try Again is a marvel.”

—Mark Haber, Brazos Bookstore

“A tremendously skilled storyteller and monologuist; his writing is so exuberant.”

—Paul Yamazaki, Publishers Weekly

“The Revolutionaries Try Again transfixes on every page—across every world-devouring sentence—with a rigorous, incandescent language rarely seen in contemporary fiction. It’s a bit early to say, but Cardenas’s debut is either the jubilant beginning or the rapturous end of the Latin American novel: a fucking revelation of a book.”

—Hal Hlavinka, Community Bookstore
