Not Average Rebels

By Milana Velasquez Stewart

Milana Velasquez Stewart's searing and gritty debut, NOT AVERAGE REBELS, a novel about deception, family secrets, and the tenuous nature of human connections. A cross between Kingsolver's The Bean Trees and Hubert Selby's Requiem For A Dream, NOT AVERAGE REBELS is narrated by Karma Watts, a 20-something year old college dropout, biracial and conflicted young woman submerged in sexual abuse and violence at a young age. Morphing into an ambiguous identity, Karma is determined to make the outside world atone for her pain and embarks on a painful journey to discover the roots of race, abuse, rage, revenge, and ultimately, the mechanisms of hope. Milana Velasquez Stewart has a Degree in Creative Writing from The New School.
