Nights too short to dance / Marie-Claire Blais ; translated by Katia Grubisic.
In 'Nights Too Short Dance', Rene, a Montreal resident and trans man in his 90s, confronts age and illness on a cold winters night. Charismatic as ever, he is surrounded by friends and lovers and over the course of the book, they look back over a century of struggle - Stonewall, the AIDS epidemic, the fight for queer rights that cost them dearly - and realize its not over. But neither is the love and joy. Marie-Claire Blais was born in Quebec City, QC. She died in 2021. A Dewey Diva pick.
