Winner of the Raz/Shumaker Prairie Schooner Book Prize in Fiction

Longlisted for the PEN/Robert W. Bingham Prize

  Boundless Deep, and Other Stories is a portrait of a family that holds together despite everything. By turns introspective, surreal, and bitingly funny, this collection of linked short stories spans seven decades across Japan and the United States and shows the tenacity of relationships fractured by language and distance.

“Del Raye’s brilliant debut ... will keep readers captivated until the end.”

—Booklist (starred review)

“A fabulous debut by a writer to watch.”

—Public Books (2023 Public Books Pick)

“With the emotional precision and imagery of a poet, and the nimble ear of a translator, Del Raye’s prose is charming, surprising, and abundant in empathy.”

—Cecily Wong, author of Diamond Head and Kaleidoscope
