A review by sbelasco40
High-Risk Homosexual by Edgar Gomez

4.0

I was quite absorbed in this all the way through, but was especially struck by the chapter where Gomez writes about the Pulse night club shooting, which was visceral and real and hit me hard. Gomez is from Orlando and spent a lot of time at Pulse, and the way he talks about the pervasiveness of reminders of that shooting, while also being aware it will soon fade from the public consciousness, was an indictment of our culture of amnesia around unthinkable tragedy. I look forward to what he writes next.
