5.0 out of 5 stars Hauntingly Powerful
Gorgeous prose graces every page of this book! The ending is one of the truly all-time greats -- the work of a master at his peak. The story will appeal to anyone who has ever wondered about the meaning of faith. Don't be put off by the book's small size -- this novel packs a punch, well after you've put it down!

3.0 out of 5 stars Not City Of Night
This too recommended to me. I remember the Rechy who wrote City of Night, one of the best books of the 1960s. I still would recommend that novel of the gay hustler streets from El Paso to Los Angeles. Los Angeles is the setting of Amalia Gomez, too, but the story seems forced. It's not bad, but I've I stopped reading it.
