"Brother Bront? evokes Octavia Butler, William Gibson, and John Steinbeck; these are all my favorites, and with this book, Fernando A. Flores joins the list." --Robin Sloan, author of Moonbound

Two women fight to save their dystopian border town--and literature--in this gonzo near-future adventure.

The year is 2038, and the formerly bustling town of Three Rivers, Texas, is a surreal wasteland. Under the authoritarian thumb of its tech industrialist mayor, Pablo Henry Crick, the town has outlawed reading and forced most of the town's mothers to work as indentured laborers at the Big Tex Fish Cannery, which poisons the atmosphere and lines Crick's pockets.

Scraping by in this godforsaken landscape are best friends Prosperina and Neftal?--the latter of whom, one of the town's last literate citizens, hides and reads the books of the mysterious renegade author Jazzmin Monelle Rivas, whose last novel, Brother Bront?, is finally in Neftal?'s possession. But after a series of increasingly violent atrocities committed by Crick's forces, Neftal? and Prosperina, with the help of a wounded bengal tigress, three scheming triplets, and an underground network of rebel t?as, rise up to reclaim their city--and in the process, unlock Rivas's connection to Three Rivers itself.

An adventure that only the acclaimed Fernando A. Flores could dream up, Brother Bront? is a mordant, gonzo romp through a ruined world that, in its dysfunction, tyranny, and disparity, nonetheless feels uncannily like our own. With his most ambitious book yet, Flores once again bends what fiction can do, in the process crafting a moving and unforgettable story of perseverance.
