Twenty-three Latino parents speak about their relationships with their lesbian and gay children, with frankness, humor, and love.

An Honduran mother joins her twin daughters at gay youth events; one is a lesbian and the other is bisexual. The mother of a Mexican activist remembers her family's love for her son, who passed away after living with AIDS for ten years... Conversaciones is an extremely important book for all Latin American and Spanish-speaking communities. With stories by twelve sons and daughters and an afterword by Jaime Manrique.
