The Gilda Stories by Jewelle Gomez
- Plot- or character-driven? Character
4.5
"We remain because this is our home . We both have lost land here. Should we leave it all to them? I will not."
Seeing how living as a Black person has changed yet stayed the same in this way was fascinating . It was also really interesting to see a Black vampire navigating how life can fulfill her.Trying and experiencing so many things to end up back in a world in which your freedom is limited was such a twist too. Similar to Octavia Butler the future is not romanticized in anyway, and for that I am grateful.
BIRD AND GILDA FOR THE WIN. LOVE THEM DOWN.
