Queer history is so important and even fictionalization of queer history is so important and I loved how this book included snippets of real life timelines as well as how it related to the Chinese American diaspora too. Those included more about the wild times of the 50’s and how it really was such a huge turning point in this world from the wars, communism, McCarthyism, and other things that Chinese immigrants and other queer people experienced.
