I picked this book up to learn about Uruguay. And I got so much more!
The story of five queer women living in a dictatorship and beyond teaches history and what it means living under oppression, what (silence) resistance can look like and how to build yourself a life, in a country that is against your existence. It tells about love, friendship, and creating your own family.
I am in awe. And I want more.
