Selections from VULTUREFFECT by Jorge Enrique Lage

These selections from VULTUREFFECT are translations of flash fictions from Vultureffect, a collection by Cuban writer Jorge Enrique Lage. The stories were published in print and online in the Spring 2021 issue of New England Review, which includes a Cuban literature supplement. Translated from Spanish.

New England Review gives readers a vital snapshot of the literary moment, four times a year, in its richness, complexity, and diversity. “From Granma to Boston and Havana and Back: Cuban Literature Today,” NER’s 2021 portfolio of international writing, features fiction, nonfiction, and poetry by 11 contemporary Cuban writers.
