    Michael Adams Thesis Prize in Fiction, judged by John Pipkin, for the short story collection "Barefoot Dogs." About this collection, Pipking wrote:

    “The interlinked short stories in ‘Barefoot Dogs’ are at once compelling, haunting, and touching in their accounts of how violence on a large scale effects the individual lives of one Mexico City family.

    “The interlinked short stories in ‘Barefoot Dogs’ are at once compelling, haunting, and touching in their accounts of how violence on a large scale effects the individual lives of one Mexico City family. The scope of these stories is impressive, not only for the original way that the narratives evoke the visceral details of everyday life amidst larger political and cultural issues, but also for the range of voices that weave throughout. The writer's use of language is confident and mature, and the sentences seem to flow organically, pushing the stories forward with the power of the language itself. There are vivid images here, subtly rendered, that remain with the reader long after the stories have finished.”
