Dino Foxx’s debut collection, When the Glitter Fades, is a love letter to lovers, to familia, to San Antonio. A mélange of experiences and polaroid shots of moments all too familiar to those who walk this queer path in search of desire, recuerdos, community, familia, and fideo homelands. Open this book and get lost –or find yourself– in the celebrations and mournings of a queer Xicano poet, teatrista, fire-eater.
