Rolling the R's by R. Zamora Linmark

I love the way that the fragmented narrative reflects the way life is experienced. No one event is given priority in determining the identity of a character; they are not just queer or just immigrants from colonized countries, they are whole characters who have been shaped by all of their experiences.
The pidgin language used in the text is rich and adds to the sense of place in the novel. Although the narrator switches constantly, and the novel is not at all linear, it all flows together well to paint a picture of the ways these characters' lives and experiences intersect.
