KALAHATING BAHAGHARI: NOBELA NI RICKY LEE

The latest novel of National Artist Ricky Lee is a masterpiece. The dark history of martial law runs parallel to the history of oppression experienced by LGBTQ+ Filipinos. Both are stains on the national memory. There is so much power in this book, such radioactive intensity. And it reads fast, the sentences like the beating of a heart. --Danton Remoto, author of Riverrun. A Novel and The Heart of Summer: Stories and Tales. Ito ang ikalimang nobela ni Ricky Lee, National Artist for Film and Broadcast Arts. Ang mga nauna niyang nobela ay ang Para Kay B, Si Amapola sa 65 na Kabanata, Bahay ni Marta, at Lahat ng B. Si Ricky rin ang may-akda ng Trip to Quiapo, Kung Alam N'yo Lang, at Sa Puso ng Himala.

Mommy, may ipagtatapat ako, sabi ni Joshua sa ina. Ano, na gusto mong maging writer? Oho. Pero hindi 'yun. I think I'm gay.

O e ano naman ngayon? Gay ang Lolo Jim at Lolo Dale mo, trans and Auntie Erich mo, queer ako, at ngayon ay gay ka, nagunaw ba ang mundo?
