Short Story Club will feature a variety of short stories by American writers, coupled with a discussion about the meaning and language used in the text.
For this session we will discuss "Amigo Brothers" by Piri Thomas.
Piri Thomas was born to a Puerto Rican mother and Cuban father. During his childhood, Thomas lived in East Harlem, which became known as “Spanish Harlem.” In this short story, two best friends become competitors when they must fight each other in a boxing match.
