This month we will be reading is Mean by Myriam Gurba
Gurba grows up queer, Chicana, and take no prisoners. Her story is a revelation, a delight, and an eye-opener.
True crime, memoir, and ghost story, Mean is the bold and hilarious tale of Myriam Gurba’s coming of age as a queer, mixed-race Chicana. Blending radical formal fluidity and caustic humor, Gurba takes on sexual violence, small towns, and race, turning what might be tragic into piercing, revealing comedy. This is a confident, intoxicating, brassy book that takes the cost of sexual assault, racism, misogyny, and homophobia deadly seriously. (Amazon books summary)
