jakson Ada Ferrer: Keeper of My Kin kansikuva

Ada Ferrer: Keeper of My Kin

Today’s guest on Writing Latinos is Ada Ferrer. Her last book Cuba: An American History, won the Pulitzer Prize. Ferrer is out with a new book titled Keeper of My Kin: Memoir of an Immigrant Daughter [https://www.simonandschuster.com/books/Keeper-of-My-Kin/Ada-Ferrer/9781668025659], published by Scribner. It’s an intimate, devastating, beautifully written account of her family’s migration from Cuba to the United States, and how the Cuban Revolution both broke and made her family. It’s also a meditation on the craft of history itself. Geraldo Cadava reviewed it for The Atlantic. You can read it here: “How Cuban History Broke a Family.” [https://www.theatlantic.com/books/2026/05/ada-ferrer-cuban-family-history-keeper-of-my-kin-book-review/687210/] After a long time teaching at NYU, Ferrer recently moved to Princeton, where she teaches history.

jakson Mary Mendoza: Deadly Divide kansikuva

Mary Mendoza: Deadly Divide

In this week’s episode of Writing Latinos, we talk with Mary E. Mendoza about her new book Deadly Divide: How Insects, Pathogens, and People Defied the US-Mexico Border, published by The University of North Carolina Press. Mendoza teaches history at The Pennsylvania State University. In Deadly Divide, she blurs the boundary between humans and animals, and borderlands history and environmental history. We talk about the similar ways that humans, ticks, cattle, and lice were racialized. I didn’t even know animals could have racial identities! We also discuss how the US and Mexican governments, and ranchers on both sides of the border, took the same approach to restricting immigration and stopping the spread of animal-borne diseases. This is the rare episode where listeners interested in Latino history and identity can also satisfy their inner science nerd. Thanks for listening!

jakson Jaquira Díaz: This is the Only Kingdom kansikuva

Jaquira Díaz: This is the Only Kingdom

Our guest this week on Writing Latinos is Jaquira Díaz, discussing her new novel This Is the Only Kingdom, published by Algonquin Books. This Is the Only Kingdom was named one of the best books of 2025 by The New York Times and was long-listed for the Center for Fiction First Novel Prize. A professor of writing at Columbia University, Díaz is also the author of an award-winning memoir, Ordinary Girls. When we caught up with her, we talked about the intergenerational traumas caused by violence, displacement, racism, and homophobia. We also talked about salsa-fueled nights out-on-the-town and the many ways that music inspires her writing. You’ll want to listen to our episode, and then go read this fast-paced story that’s tough to put down.
