9) This Is How You Lose Her
By Junot Diaz
Diaz’s linked story collection centers on Yunior, the insightful Dominican-American philanderer who guided readers through Diaz’s earlier collection and his Pulitzer-awarded novel. Yunior’s voice seduces you with its mix of highbrow (an ambivalent lover “Bartlebys” a response) and colloquial (idiomatic Spanish and profanity), and his rutted road to redemption is comical and heartrending.
