SORDIDEZ is now more than two months old! Thank you to everyone who picked up a copy, rated, reviewed, or boosted me on this wondrous journey to publication. It's amazing how many of you connected with this wildly experimental work of queer indigenous futurism. Les agradezco mucho! Hahom! #taino #latinxbooks #bookstodon

Thank you Ai Jiang for these beautiful words about SORDIDEZ! "Condé weaves an elegant & intricate narrative of healing & courage that is sure to touch and inspire."

If you want to learn more about the book come to our online book launch! Aug 1, 7pm EST. bit.ly/sordidezlaunch

A collage of four images, including the 3d paperback of SORDIDEZ in the top left corner and a blurb from Ai Jiang, author of LINGHUN, in the bottom right. The blurb reads: "SORDIDEZ by E.G. Condé is a rich and lush tale of finding hope amidst bleakness, of sacrifice, community, survival, and both connection and isolation with a desolate climate crisis backdrop. Condé weaves an elegant and intricate narrative of healing and courage that is sure to touch and inspire.” In the top right is a washed out image of ruins in the Yucatan, and in the bottom left is an aged photo of a Puerto Rican beach. Text between the images reads "pre-order at www.stelliform.press" and "come to the online book launch".

Thanks to Jo Ladzinski for this nice review that highlights some of the important work Sordidez does! See the full review at jowritesfantasy.me/2023/07/24/

"It’s hopeful in the way that hope takes work and perseverance, especially in contexts where truth and history hurt more than the trauma at hand."

#bookstodon #indigenousfuturism #indigenousliterature #latinebooks #latinxbooks #lgbtqbooks #sciencefiction #climatefiction #smallpress

A composite image including the header from Jo Ladzinski's website, the book cover on the left, and a quote from the Sordidez on the right. The text reads: "The imagery in this one is as beautiful as it is brutal. Condé captures how hard it is to navigate a land one once thought familiar, and the heartbreak that comes with seeing it fall to ruin ... It’s hopeful in the way that hope takes work and perseverance, especially in contexts where truth and history hurt more than the trauma at hand." - Jo Ladzinsky, author of Ice Upon a Pier. Text below the review quote reads: Sordidez by E.G. Condé is out August 1st! Preorder at www.stelliform.press or anywhere books are sold.

A quote from Matthew David Goodwin about E.G. Condé's novella SORDIDEZ. The image features a saturated blue, pink, red, orange, and yellow Maya ruins, plus the book cover, and the following text: "E.G. Condé picks up a kaleidoscope in Sordidez and peers into the future, in the direction of Puerto Rico and the Yucatan peninsula, forming a vibrant Latinx vision of our future, and fulfilling the promise of speculative fiction to inspire us in the process of decolonization. Amidst the strange new horrors created by both humans and AIs in this future world, the trans protagonist Vero Diaz endeavors to heal the people and the land through the revolutionary spirit of the Taíno. This is Condé’s first book, and I can’t wait for the next one." Matthew David Goodwin, editor of Speculative Fiction for Dreamers: A Latinx Anthology and Assistant Professor, Department of Chicana/o Studies, University of New Mexico

Just a month before this book drops. It got a Publishers Weekly ⭐️ and was picked as a Top 10 PW Fall book in the SFFH category. Author Karlo Yeager Rodriguez and many others think you won't want to miss this one.

On a background of ornate blue and white tiles, the cover of SORDIDEZ is on the left and blurb on the right. The blurb from Karlo Yeager Rodriguez reads: ""Sordidez describes a state of squalor in Spanish, a condition that the handful of characters endure for much of E.G. Condé's novella of the same name. ... Though much of the lushness of the Yucatán Peninsula and Puerto Rico has been scoured clean by a horrific hydrophage weapon, the Indigenous people of the region struggle to create a green future free of colonial powers both new and old. You won't want to miss this one." At the bottom of the graphic the text reads: "Coming August 1. Available for preorder everywhere books are sold."
