Remembering Gil Cuadros (1962-1996)


I found the following photograph of the brilliant gay Chicano escritor Gil Cuadros, who left this world too soon. Cuadros' debut "City of God" is a masterpiece in Chicano literature. He has joined the ranks of other important gay Chicano escritores such as John Rechy, Michael Nava, Luis Alfaro and Richard Rodriguez. However, there will never be another voice like his. Te recordamos siempre, Gil.
