'The Three Red Lines' takes four New Yorkers on a psychedelic trip through tattoo parlors, shared dreamscapes, haunted visions, forbidden feelings, and exotic Mardi Gras-inspired fantasies. There's sex, there's drugs, there's Bauhaus. This completely raw, contemporary take on New Yorkers goes far beyond a mere titillating look at today's gritty sexual lifestyles in the gay community. In addition, 'The Three Red Lines' flirts with the mystical realm of the subconscious and climaxes (literally and figuratively) in a shared dream that ends up coming to vivid life in a Brooklyn brownstone one fateful night. The journey that all four characters take is life-altering, avowedly sexual, hair-raising, sometimes funny, occasionally creepy and, best of all, uplifting.

Quijana is a girl in pieces. One-half Guatemalan, one-half American: When Quijana's Guatemalan cousins move to town, her dad seems ashamed that she doesn't know more about her family's heritage. One-half crush, one-half buddy: When Quijana meets Zuri and Jayden, she knows she's found true friends. But she can't help the growing feelings she has for Jayden. One-half kid, one-half grown-up: Quijana spends her nights Skyping with her ailing grandma and trying to figure out what's going on with her increasingly hard-to-reach brother. In the course of this immersive and beautifully written novel, Quijana must figure out which parts of herself are most important, and which pieces come together to make her whole. This lyrical debut from Rebecca Balcárcel is a heartfelt poetic portrayal of a girl growing up, fitting in, and learning what it means to belong.
