PEDRO & DANIEL
"An unforgettable journey of resilience and, most of all love. Stunning."
"Luminous. Riveting. Uplifting and heart-wrenching." "Devastatingly beautiful." "One of the most powerful sibling stories. 'Written in beautiful language that you can really savor. 'The two characters will steal readers' hearts." |

Pedro and Daniel are Mexican American brothers growing up in 1970s Ohio. Their mother resents that Pedro is a spitting image of their darker-skinned father, that Daniel likes dolls, that neither boy plays sports. Both are gay and neurodivergent. They are alike, but they are dissimilar in their struggles, their dreams, their approach to life.
Pedro & Daniel is a deeply personal novel that spans from the boys' childhood until they are young men. Together they experience joy and laughter, as they endure abuses, coming out, first loves, first jobs, and the AIDS pandemic, in a coming-of-age story unlike any other.
