‘¡Cuéntamelo! Oral Histories by LGBT Latino Immigrants’ | #ILoveGay | Scoop.it

"¡Cuéntamelo!," a rereleased collection of oral histories by seven LGBT Latino immigrants, might have Juliana Delgado Lopera's name on its cover, but, save for an introduction and some scene-setting details, Lopera very wisely cedes the book to her subjects. Lopera, of course, deserves considerable credit for the hours spent interviewing, transcribing, translating and condensing these histories, but the most difficult task - and one she manages well - is letting a sense of who each of these individuals are come through on the page.
