When Daniel de La Luna arrives as a scholarship student at an elite East Coast university, he bears the weight of his familys hopes and dreamsand the burden of sharing his late uncles name. Daniel flounders at first, but then Sam, his roommate, changes everything. As their relationship evolves from brotherly banter to something more intimate, Daniel soon finds himself in love with a man who helps him see himself in a new light. But just as their relationship takes flight, Daniel is pulled away, first by Sams hesitation and then by a brutal turn of events that changes Daniels life forever. As he grapples with profound loss, Daniel finds himself in his familys ancestral homeland in Mxico for the summer, finding joy in this setting even as he struggles to come to terms with whats happened and faces a host of new questions: How does the person he is connect with this place his family comes from? How is his own story connected to his late uncles? And how might he reconcile the many parts of himself as he learns to move forward? Equal parts tender and triumphant, Andrs N. Ordoricas How We Named the Stars is a debut novel of love, heartache, redemption, and learning to honor the dead, a story of finding the strength to figure out who you areand who you could beif only the world would let you.
