The Mariposa Club by Rigoberto Gonzalez
Rigoberto Gonzalez achieves an authentic first person narrative in "The Mariposa Club." Ultimately about friendship and family, the novel is also about being gay. Gonzalez manages to bring together a cast of characters that express a wide range of queer experiences, without it feeling forced. By the end of the novel, I was left with the sense that the four main characters' stories were only at the very beginning, that their stories will continue long after the words on the page run out. "The Mariposa Club" is a worthwhile book to read, filled with a lot of heart.
