Monster in the Middle by Tiphanie Yanique
When Fly and Stela meet in New York City, it seems like fate. He's a Black American musician from a mixed-religious background who knows all about heartbreak. She's a Catholic science teacher from the Caribbean, looking for lasting love. But are they meant to be? The answer goes back decades - all the way to their parents' earliest loves. Vibrant and riveting, Monster in the Middle moves across time, from the U.S. to the Virgin Islands to Ghana and back, to show how one couple's romance is intrinsically influenced by the family lore and love stories that preceded their own pairing.
Tiphanie Yanique is from Saint Thomas, Virgin Islands. The author of the story collection How to Escape from a Leper Colony, she is a 2010 Rona Jaffe Writers' Award winner and was named by the National Book Awards as one of 2011's 5 Under 35. She teaches at the New School and lives in Brooklyn and Saint Thomas.
