Boston Globe Review: “Taut and Propulsive.”

What a delightful surprise waking up to Nina MacLaughlin’s incisive review feature of THE PLAYWRIGHT’S HOUSE in the Boston Globe: “Taut and propulsive…Suarez, with subtle force, gets at who is acting and who is watching, within a family, a city, a country, and a culture.”

Author Interview

I had wonderful time answering some very thoughtful questions about The Playwright’s House for Hypertext Magazine.

Publishers Weekly Review of THE PLAYWRIGHT’S HOUSE!

I’m so excited to have gotten this positive Publishers Weekly review for THE PLAYWRIGHT’S HOUSE!

“Fans of realistic political thrillers won’t want to miss this one,” it concludes. As someone who really cares about plot, I take it as badge of honor that they tagged the novel as a thriller.

I feel so incredibly fortunate and grateful for all the people who’ve helped me with this book along the way!

Debut Novel has Release Date and is Available for Pre-Order!

I’m super stoked to share that the release of my debut novel, THE PLAYWRIGHT’S HOUSE, has been officially set for June 15th, 2021. And, the book is already available for pre-order! Please bear with me over the next few months, as I try my best to get this Cuban novel (which deals with art, politics, a surveillance state, journalism as activism, exile, and family tragedy) off the ground. Your support is much appreciated ❤️🇨🇺

New Review of A Kind of Solitude

I spent nearly eight years working on this story collection before it found a home, so it was incredibly moving to read this wonderful review in The Kenyon Review, one of my favorite literary journals: “Despite all the light it shines on troubles in Cuban life, A Kind of Solitude is a love letter to Cuba as much as it as a critique of it, full of the heartbreak that comes from loving something flaws and all.”

A Kind of Solitude Gets Shoutout in Boston Globe.

My story collection got a very nice shoutout in the Boston Globe’s book headlines! The wonderful Nina MacLaughlin said the collection “braids the personal and the political” and “evokes the magnetic forces that pull us toward something and keep us bound.” 🇨🇺❤️
