An extravagant, tragicomic novel, Flesh Wounds & Purple Flowers takes us into the world of Latino machos and cha-cha divas of Santiago's gay underground, full of dreamers and schemers looking for salvation ab sco, and a plague that is at the same time debilitating and liberating. Fresh, funny, and full of colour and verve, Flesh Wounds & Purple Flowers reads like a gay Latino version of Valley of the Dolls. Shortlisted for the Commonwealth Writers Prize for Best First Book (Canada-Caribbean).
