Julia Reyes is the novel's fiery, ravenous, ambitious, contrarian narrator and protagonist. A year ahead in school and possession of wit and smarts beyond her years, Julia’s acute intelligence and love of the world of books marks her as different from the rest of her large, loud, working-class immigrant family—and her black-sheep status, exacerbated by the untimely death of her “perfect” older sister Olga, pushes her further and further into fantasies of moving away and living in New York as a famous writer.
