Book Synopsis Memory Mambo by : Achy Obejas

Download or read book Memory Mambo written by Achy Obejas and published by Cleis Press. This book was released on 2016-10-18 with total page 251 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Memory Mambo describes the life of Juani Casas, a 25-year-old Cuban-born American lesbian who manages her family's laundromat in Chicago while trying to cope with family, work, love, sex, and the weirdness of North American culture. Achy Obejas's writing is sharp and mordantly funny. She understands perfectly how the romance of exile—from a homeland as well as from heterosexuality—and the mundane reality of everyday life balance one another. Memory Mambo is ultimately very moving in its depiction of what it means to find a new and finally safe sense of home.
