In 'Fiesta 1980', A Spirited Family Gathering Plays Against The Noiseless Hum Of A Father'S Infidelities. In 'Boyfriend', A Young Man Eavesdrops On The Woman Next Door And Colours In The Life Overheard With His Own Intense Longing.

Diaz Has Veered Off The Well-Travelled Roads Of Contemporary Fiction And Captured A Range Of Experience Previously Uncharted And Now Emphatically His Own. Published By on 2008
