Named a Best of 2022 by the New York Times, TIME, Kirkus, Washington Post and NPR, Olga Dies Dreaming was the winner of the Brooklyn Public Library Book Prize in Fiction and the New York City Book Award. Gonzalez is a 2021 MFA graduate from the Iowa Writers' Workshop. Her nonfiction work has been published in Elle Decor, Allure, Vogue, Real Simple and The Cut.

From campus to galleries, this engrossing tale of two female artists paints a complex portrait of power and privilege.

“Reading is an act of resistance in a landscape of distraction.... We regain the world by withdrawing from it just a little by stepping back from the noise.”
