Finalista del Premio Lambda en Ficción Gay 2024 Uno de los mejores libros de Amazon de 2024 hasta ahora Galardonada con el National Book Award 2023, una novela deslumbrante que desentierra un episodio fundacional de la comunidad queer y explora los orígenes de su patologización.«Se difuminan los límites de la Historia, la autobiografía y la ficción con el arte. Hermoso». -Sam Sacks, The Wall Street Journal
En un remoto asilo en el desierto, un hombre joven acompaña a un moribundo. Han pasado diez años desde que coincidieran brevemente en una institución psiquiátrica. Ahora, el que está punto de morir le pide al otro que termine el proyecto al que ha dedicado su vida: la reconstrucción de la singular historia de Jan Gay. Esta investigadora, escritora y activista queer de principios del siglo XX dedicó su vida a documentar las vidas lesbianas y la cultura nudista en Estados Unidos y Europa, y sin embargo su trabajo fue el origen de un manual sobre la homosexualidad como perversión titulado Desviaciones sexuales: un estudio de los patrones homosexuales. La lectura de las misteriosas páginas tachadas de dicho manual infame acompañará las vigilias diurnas que siguen a las calurosas noches de insomnio de aquellos dos hombres. En las horas de oscuridad mantendrán una larga conversación sobre sus vidas y las de Jan Gay y los sujetos que participaron en la truncada investigación. En este atmosférico relato de amor, que es a la vez un collage documental y un homenaje a Pedro Páramo y El beso de la mujer araña, Justin Torres desentierra un episodio borrado de la historia estadounidense para explorar los orígenes de la patologización de la comunidad queer; una bella e imaginativa novela que ha sido merecedora del National Book Award.

Out in the desert in a place called the Palace, a young man tends to a dying soul, someone he once knew briefly but who has haunted the edges of his life: Juan Gay. Playful raconteur, child lost and found and lost, guardian of the institutionalized, Juan has a project to pass along, one built around a true artifact of a book―Sex Variants: A Study of Homosexual Patterns―and its devastating history. This book contains accounts collected in the early twentieth century from queer subjects by a queer researcher, Jan Gay, whose groundbreaking work was then co-opted by a committee, her name buried. The voices of these subjects have been filtered, muted, but it is possible to hear them from within and beyond the text, which, in Juan's tattered volumes, has been redacted with black marker on nearly every page. As Juan waits for his end, he and the narrator recount for each other moments of joy and oblivion; they resurrect loves, lives, mothers, fathers, minor heroes. In telling their own stories and the story of the book, they resist the ravages of memory and time. The past is with us, beside us, ahead of us; what are we to create from its gaps and erasures? A book about storytelling―its legacies, dangers, delights, and potential for change―and a bold exploration of form, art, and love, Justin Torres's Blackouts uses fiction to see through the inventions of history and narrative. A marvel of creative imagination, it draws on testimony, photographs, illustrations, and a range of influences as it insists that we look long and steadily at what we have inherited and what we have made―a world full of ghostly shadows and flashing moments of truth. A reclamation of ransacked history, a celebration of defiance, and a transformative encounter, Blackouts mines the stories that have been kept from us and brings them into the light.

Cute and high quality
Color: Cream
I love this purse- I have it in cream and gold. It looks high quality and has held up well with lots of use. Big enough to fit a decent amount of things inside.

Absolutely beautiful!
Color: Brown, Color: Brown
I needed a purse for my brown/orange colors to use occasionally. I returned a black one from a different company but I loved the gold handle. I saw this and realized it was perfect! I like the shape of this handle and the texture/color better anyway. Not too big or small, beautiful color and the magnets are great. There’s a zipper compartment inside. The chain is pretty sturdy but it’s removable and you can attach a different handle/strap if you’d like
I love the look as I’ve got two Brahmin bags . The texture prevents being to see any small scratches and you can just wipe it off with a damp cloth
I’ll carry it with the chain inside but don’t know if I’ll use it. People complain about the quality but seriously? It’s a $30 bag! I think it’s a great value myself. It’s sturdy enough to keep looking very nice and functional for a long time.. If you’re looking for a small clutch, this isn’t it, but it’s not too big either. I love it !

BEAUTIFUL clutch purse! I would buy it again in a heartbeat.
Color: Green
The craftsmanship of the clutch purse is fabulous. The color is a bit darker green and not the obnoxious grass green color. The crocodile pattern is stylish and the finish is shiny and reflects light. The interior is cloth and has a spacious inner zippered compartment on one side. The zipper moves freely. There is an included shoulder chain which attaches on the inside of the clutch.
My only negative issue is the plastic wrapping on top of the handles. The plastic was anchored UNDER the metal handles. This yielded some difficulty to get the torn parts of plastic out from under the handles. I only used my fingernails and was able to coax most of it out. I'm hesitant to use any kind of tool to get the remaining plastic film out. The shine on the outside of the bag makes most of the plastic bits unrecognizable.
I got this clutch purse for Christmas time. It will hold my lip stick, wallet, keys, and phone just fine. I doubt it would hold much else. But I'm OK with that. I don't carry much stuff with me anyways.
