Karla Cornejo Villavicencio: Cancer Sun, Sagittarius Moon, Libra Rising
Update: 2024-10-08
Description
Karla Cornejo Villavicencio is the award-winning author of two books: her nonfiction debut, The Undocumented Americans, and her latest, a novel called Catalina. Catalina follows a Latine senior at Harvard who feels stuck between the opportunities an Ivy League diploma offers and the limiting realities of being undocumented in America. Though Catalina may be loosely autofiction, Karla deftly gives her readers what they think they want, while, as she says, ‘making them regret it.’ Isa Nakazawa sits down with Karla to discuss how her Cancer sun shines through in her ability to write storylines that reflect a more honest and messy set of realities.
