Extended Stay Featured in Book Riot

Extended Stay by Juan Martinez was featured in the article from Book Riot, “Start Your Year Off Scared: New Horror Coming Out In January,” by Emily Martin.

In a rundown neighborhood in the heart of Las Vegas, the Alicia hotel awakens and beckons to the most vulnerable—those with something to hide.

Haunting and visceral, Extended Stay uses the language of body horror and the gothic to comment on the complicated relationship between the Latinx undocumented experience and capitalism, the erasure of those living and working on the margins, the heavy toll exacted by memory, and the queasy permeability of boundaries that separate the waking world from the world of dreams.
