"Whatever your orientation, no matter your ethnicity, you'll never be the same after a journey through this odyssey. A vivid and visceral portrayal of a sexual and political coming-of-age in today's America-and beyond." Laura S. Washington, Ida B. Wells-Barnett University Professor, DePaul University. Columnist, Chicago Sun-Times 'Gay literature is rich in so many areas, yet we still have a great need for strong stories from the world of Latino culture-about family, about youth, about coming out, about creating adult relationships, about dealing with AIDS. Now, Carlos Mock gives us a strong Puerto Rican story that deals with all these issues." - Patricia Nell Warren, author of The Front Runner and The Wild Man Books like Borrowing Time: a Latino Sexual Odyssey can be antidotes for this lack of understanding and acceptance. It can also be a useful tool for any homosexual or lesbian to understand and accept him or herself, without judgments. It takes the reader, gay or straight, into the mind, heart and dreams of Juan Subir� Rexach with great candor, honesty and humor. I feel enormous gratitude to Carlos for giving both the gay community and heterosexuals a glimpse of this very complex process. Dra. Gloria Mock
