Panamerica

Panamerica is a home for the American voice in the genres of literary fiction and reportage. They publish books that highlight what is most distinctive about American writing, including the mix of high and low subject matter and voices; deadpan and absurdist humor; the tragedies and triumphs of ordinary people living alongside their neighbors; and the ability to invent and inhabit new worlds.
