Overview: Itzel’s 13th birthday party starts in just about the unluckiest way possible-with her dad having a heart attack. In those frantic moments, the piñntilde;ata and the frosted sheetcake and the Styrofoam cups of orange soda are forgotten; the day’s highlights end up being CPR, an ambulance ride, and angioplasty. But when her father gets home from the hospital, his problems are far from over–and Itzel’s are just getting started.
Nothing’s Ever the Same chronicles a young girl’s coming of age in Chicago–growing up as her family grows apart. In masterful fashion, Cyn Vargas gives us a touching and memorable and universal story about a marriage on the brink and a teenager looking for love. It’s a short book that packs a wallop; it’s also a beautiful meditation on dysfunction and forgiveness, and all the times in life to which we can never return.
The New Chicago Classics are a disparate set of titles united around a common theme: showcasing the city’s up-and-coming literary talents as they produce enduring works. These excellent titles are destined to stand in the first rank of literature about the second city.
