Luis Alberto Urrea
At turns heartbreaking, uplifting, and riotously funny, QUEEN OF AMERICA reconfirms Luis Alberto Urrea's status as a writer of the first rank. Unfortunately, you'll have to wait for December's publication date to listen to him narrate this new novel. However, for the first time ever, Urrea's important work of nonfiction, The Devil's Highway, will be available for the first time, unabridged, as an audiobook read by the author.
