Fiction. Gay & Lesbian studies. This novel is set amidst the outsider worlds of present-day downtown New York, 1990s Los Angeles, and 1940s Mexico City. LIKE SON is the not-so-simple story of a father, a son, and the love-blindness shared between them. "LIKE SON moves on the wings of a soulful, visceral kind of androgyny. Old men, young men, hot girls-all step forward and sing from their stuttering hearts. LIKE SON is one terrific read"-Eileen Myles. "Felicia Luna Lemus' fresh yet plain-spoken prose roots us in today's sad and sweeping chaos, as hope, love, and wild myth propel her unique characters into an unknown future. LIKE SON is a sweet song of a story"-Michelle Tea.
