Reviews
"A layered portrait of exile, sexual awakening, and family bonds." --The Millions "Glowing. . . . story about coming of age as a queer adolescent, an immigrant, a daughter, a bilingual kid, a complex human being, this book is fast-paced and energetic while also being heartfelt and captivating." --LitHub "Inventive and heady mixture of Spanish and English." --The White Review "Juliana Delgado Lopera--remember that name--is an irreverent, shameless and disarming new novelist. She is a merciless satirist in control of a pitch-perfect voice that makes an indisputable case for Spanglish as the perfect vehicle to express what we are really like right now." --Jaime Manrique, NBC News "A rich, deeply felt novel about family ties, immigration, sexual longing, faith, and desire. Simultaneously raw and luminous." --Kirkus Reviews, starred review "Moving and hilarious. . . . This feisty coming-of-age tale introduces a funny, fresh, and indelible new voice." --Publishers Weekly, starred review "Boiling over with searing details and raw emotion, Fiebre Tropical is a spellbinding tale about an immigrant family's emotional downfall." --Foreword Reviews "When you drive around town, when you stare out the window, when you wake up in the middle of the night, whether you know it or not, you are waiting for a book like this. Fiebre Tropical is a triumph, and we're all triumphant in its presence." --Daniel Handler, author of All the Dirty Parts "Fiebre Tropical is a story of migration, queerness, brokenness, and love. Juliana Delgado Lopera has written a novel across borders that buzzes with verve, fierceness, and raw emotion. Delgado Lopera forks her tongue for this book, weaving English and Spanish in inspired and irreverent prose. This book is absolute music to my ears." --Ingrid Rojas Contreras, author of Fruit of the Drunken Tree: A Novel "Juliana Delgado Lopera's riveting new book is propelled as much by its hurricane-force language as by its unforgettable characters, storm-tossed women making the best of their new lives in a new country. This queer coming-of-age novel explores first love, but it also looks at the myriad ways humans find solace and connection." --Caroline Paul, author of You Are Mighty: A Guide to Changing the World "A magnificent novel, by turns electric, hilarious, sexy, thrilling, wrenching, and profound. Pa decirlo clarito: Juliana Delgado Lopera is a writer of explosive talent, and this book is a fierce and radiant contribution, yes, to queer literature, Latinx literature, and immigrant literature, but also to literature, punto." --Carolina De Robertis, author of Cantoras "Fiebre Tropical is a literary explosion. In a rollicking, multilingual prose both wise and irreverent, brimming with snark and queer humor, Juliana Delgado Lopera crafts a migration tale we've never read and badly need." --Michelle Tea, author of Against Memoir: Complaints, Confessions & Criticisms "Gorgeously written, tragic and hilarious by turns, Fiebre Tropical is the tale of a teenager from Bogotá coming to the United States and coming of age. But more than that, it's about a crumbling family of matriarchs gone crazy for religion, and the soul-saving, soul-crushing power of first love. Juliana Delgado Lopera's voice prickles with tears, outrage, and sharp details that make us believe in her characters, and more importantly, to believe in their survival." --Annalee Newitz, author of Autonomous: A Novel "¡Ay Dios mío! This book's got tumbao. With energetic prose and a sharp sense of humor, Juliana Delgado Lopera brings us a queer coming-of-age tale that explores diasporic identity from Bogotá to Miami, and the complicated ways that religious fervor impacts same-sex desire and one's relationship to community. Lopera's eye for detail is fierce and this book is easy to devour." --Joseph Cassara, author of The House of Impossible Beauties: A Novel, "Lit by neon Miami sunsets and the hot glow of the Christian apocalypse, Fiebre Tropical is a literary explosion filled with sweaty Jesus-crazed teens, fainting churchgoers, powerful, melodramatic mothers, and drunken grandmothers. In a rollicking, multilingual prose both wise and irreverent, brimming with snark and queer humor, Juliana Delgado Lopez crafts a coming-of-age tale, a coming-out tale, a migration tale we've never read and badly need." --Michelle Tea, author of Against Memoir: Complaints, Confessions & Criticisms "Fiebre Tropical is a magnificent novel, by turns electric, hilarious, sexy, thrilling, wrenching, and profound. Pa decirlo clarito: Juliana Delgado Lopera is a writer of explosive talent, and this book is a fierce and radiant contribution, yes, to queer literature, Latinx literature, and immigrant literature, but also to literature, punto." --Carolina De Robertis, author of Cantoras "Gorgeously written, tragic and hilarious by turns, Fiebre Tropical is the tale of a teenager from Bogotá coming to the United States and coming of age.

Synopsis
Uprooted from Bogotá into an ant-infested Miami townhouse, fifteen-year-old Francisca is miserable in her strange new city. Her alienation grows when her mother is swept up in an evangelical church, replete with abstinent salsa dancers and baptisms for the dead. But there, Francisca meets the magnetic Carmen: head of the youth group and the pastor's daughter. As her mother's mental health deteriorates, Francisca falls for Carmen and is saved to grow closer with her, even as their relationship hurtles toward a shattering conclusion.
