The Books Oracle

Supersaurio

by Meryem El Mehdati

Twenty-five-year-old Meryem begins work at SUPERSAURIO, the Canary Islands' largest supermarket chain, where no one can spell her name correctly. To escape the sadness of her reality, she writes fanfiction about her favorite TV characters. El Mehdati captures the millennial experience of emotional survival through screens and the strange dignity found in menial work.
