How to Travel without Seeing

We've Got Some 'Bad Hombres' Coming into Our Country...

And they're bringing their books with them!

As opposed to a certain presidential candidate who recently caricatured Mexican immigrants as "bad hombres," and those who quail at a future with "taco trucks on every corner," Restless has always been a fierce advocate of Latin American ideas and culture, which have been interwoven with our own for centuries. To be fair, we could see why some might fear the work of Costa Rican-born novelist Carlos Fonseca, Cuban death-metal star and sci-fi writer Yoss, and Argentinian-Spanish polymath Andrés Neuman—their books heed no borders between genres, they subvert censorship by the powerful, and they consort with all manner of dangerous "foreign" thinkers from Rabelais to Nabokov. Nevertheless, we have welcomed them in, and they'll be in San Francisco, Portland, Houston, Dallas, Austin, BaltimoreNew York, Providence, Miami, Princeton, and more in the coming weeks. See below for more details!
