Más información sobre el libro

What's life without risk? At least that's what Patrick Gallagher tells himself as he arrives in Las Vegas at the peak of the Cold War with a dream that can't be bought in gold or jewels: To become a standup comedian, a monologist. But nobody can run away from their past, no matter how bright their future may seem. The world isn't as clear as it appears. Will Patrick succeed? Or will he discover that everything has its price and some costs can't be quantified in a dollar bill? In this queer revolutionary imagining of 1963 Las Vegas, Aquino Loayza, Author of the Queer Cosmic Epic: Deep, explores the seedy underbelly of Sin City in its infancy as Patrick Gallagher embarks on his quest to defy the odds and become The Monologist.
