Parallel Stories is delighted to host the launch of Santa Barbara resident and Museum literary partner Sameer Pandya’s second novel. Our Beautiful Boys is a portrait of three high school football players and their families and a moment of violence that will drastically change all their lives.
In light of recent conversations about the crisis of young men, the novel explores masculinity, race, education and privilege, and the conflict that arises when all these collide.
Sameer Pandya is the author of the novel Members Only, a finalist for the California Book Award and an NPR “Books We Love” of 2020, and the story collection The Blind Writer, longlisted for the PEN/Open Book Award.
