The Modern Latina Reviews From This Wicked Patch of Dust
“The story that really hit home for mewas the moment when Ismael received the call from his mother that his dear abuelita had passed away. It was as if this story was taken from my own life experience. The guilt and sadness Ismael felt for living so far away from the family were
feelings I’ve felt before. Family is a huge part of the Mexican culture,
especially our abuelitas who are typically the
matriarch of our families….I cried reading this beautiful and powerful scene in the book as I felt
like I was reliving those hard but powerful moments in my own life….
Troncoso does a wonderful
job in depicting this same struggle that many Latino children face growing up
in America.
For modern Latinas everywhere, I highly recommend reading this book. Even if
you’re not from El Paso or a border town, there
is one story that you can relate to growing up as a Latina
in America.
Whether it is religion, moving away from family, pursuing your education, or
even his intermittent use of Spanish and English throughout the story, Troncoso delivers a heartwarming and beautiful story that
you can identify with.”

The Nature of Truth makes the top ten list for Best Fiction Books
The Nature of Truth makes the top ten list for Best Fiction Books By Latino Authors for 2014:
“An excellent book that shows a Nazi war criminal who has managed to hide in plain view, and a young man with the dilemma of disclosing this man’s background. The author brings to light many human frailties scattered within a campus setting and also the subconscious.”

Words on a Wire Interview: Sergio Troncoso
With two of my favorite writers from El Paso, Benjamin Alire Saenz and Daniel Chacon, on their program “Words on a Wire.” We argue about tamales, asaderos, literature, creativity, and what it is to be an artist. I read from The Nature of Truth, a novel about a Yale researcher who discovers that his boss hides a Nazi past.
