LONGLISTED FOR THE CENTER FOR FICTION FIRST NOVEL PRIZE. One of Tor.com's Best Books of 2019.

Readers of this breakout work will leave] thrilled and disoriented in equal measure. --Sam Sacks, The Wall Street Journal

A parallel universe. South Texas. A third border wall might be erected between the United States and Mexico, narcotics are legal and there's a new contraband on the market: filtered animals--species of animals brought back from extinction to amuse the very wealthy.

Esteban Bellacosa has lived in the border town of MacArthur long enough to know to keep quiet and avoid the dangerous syndicates who make their money through trafficking. But his simple life gets complicated after a swashbuckling journalist invites him to an underground dinner at which filtered animals are served. Bellacosa soon finds himself in the middle of an increasingly perilous and surreal journey, in the course of which he encounters legends of the long-disappeared Arana a Indian tribe and their object of worship: the mysterious Trufflepig, said to possess strange powers.

Written with infectious verve, bold imagination, and oddball humor, Fernando A. Flores's Tears of the Trufflepig is an absurdist take on life along the border, an ode to the myths of Mexican culture, and an introduction to a staggeringly smart new voice in American fiction.

Great product but pricy
I really like this product. It helps with “aged” skin- moisturizing but not oily or heavy feeling. It is pricy though.

Perfect for Glassy Skin
Love the feeling, ease of application, hydration, longevity/ duration, and all-day effect. Would be nice if they cost less, but here we are. Size is perfect for travel. Of course super hydrating products will be a bit sticky to touch, but I shouldn’t be touching my skin anyway. Only pops up when I need to put my face down for a massage or at the chiropractor. Love Avéne!

Hydrating serum
This product is not as hydrating as it claims for my 56 year old skin. I have to reapply several times a day. There's no irritation or stickiness which is great tho.
