A NEW YORK TIMES TOP TEN BOOK OF 2024

A NEW YORK PUBLIC LIBRARY TOP TEN BOOK OF THE YEAR

"Short, strange, spiky and sublime.” Dwight Garner, New York Times

“Funny, ghastly, eye-opening, marvelous.” —Wall Street Journal

From the visionary author of Sudden Death, a hallucinatory, revelatory colonial revenge story.


One morning in 1519, conquistador Hernán Cortés enters the city of Tenochtitlan – today's Mexico City. Later that day, he will meet the emperor Moctezuma in a collision of two worlds, two empires, two languages, two possible futures.

Cortés is accompanied by his captains, his troops, his prized horses, and his two translators: Friar Aguilar, a taciturn friar, and Malinalli, an enslaved, strategic Nahua princess. After nearly bungling their entrance to the city, the Spaniards are greeted at a ceremonial welcome meal by the steely Aztec princess Atotoxtli, sister and wife of Moctezuma. As they await their meeting with the emperor – who is at a political and spiritual crossroads, and relies on hallucinogens to get by – Cortés and his entourage are ensconced in the labyrinthine palace. Soon, one of Cortés’s captains, Jazmín Caldera, overwhelmed by the grandeur of the place, begins to question the ease with which they were welcomed into the city, and wonders at the chances of getting out alive, much less conquering the empire. And what if... they don't?

You Dreamed of Empires brings Tenochtitlan to life at its height, and reimagines its destiny. The incomparably original Álvaro Enrigue sets afire the moment of conquest and turns it into a moment of revolution, a restitutive, fantastical counterattack, in a novel so electric and so unique that it feels like a dream.

Great Summer Look & Very Comfortable Fit Perfect Vacation Shirt for Tall Guys
Color: Khaki, Size: Large
I am very pleased with the quality of this shirt. The material is incredibly soft and has a nice weight to it, making it feel durable yet breathable. It features a moisture-wicking property that makes it a clean-looking, essential summer shirt, especially for those warmer days here in Utah. I really like the tan color; it looks great and pairs easily with a pair of jeans, nice shorts, or even flip-flops and sandals. At 6'5" and 260 lbs, finding a shirt that fits my height can be tricky, but the size fits me pretty good and the fit is actually better than some other extra-larges I have tried. Even with a little bit of a belly, it is very flattering and the soft material feels great against the skin. It is slightly shorter than some other XL shirts, but it still works well for my frame. We are heading out on a cruise this week, and this is definitely going to be my go-to shirt for checking out the ship and staying comfortable in the sun. The washability is another high-quality factor—I always wash things before wearing them, and this one didn't shrink much at all. Everything from the color to the texture stayed perfect right out of the wash. Overall, I hope you enjoy this shirt as much as I did because it really is a well-made and good-looking product!
