ANA MENENDEZ is a Miami-based journalist and novelist. The New York Times called her first book, the short-story collection In Cuba I Was a German Shepherd, “a bright debut that points to even brighter accomplishments to come.” USA Today said her first novel, Loving Che, “draws deeply on the value of memories we collect and the personal identity we struggle to build with them.” The daughter of Cuban exiles, she has worked for the Miami Herald and the Orange County Register. The Sun Sentinel called her most recent novel, The Last War (HarperCollins), a “fully convincing psychological portrait.”
