In the tradition of the Latin American "testimonio," this" "is the
story of Juan Rivera, a.k.a. Juanito Xtravaganza, a Latino runaway
youth who ends up homeless in the streets of New York in the late
70s and becomes partner of the internationally famous 1980s Pop
artist Keith Haring during some of the most frenetically productive
years of his brief life, as told to the author and retold by him. A
hybrid text--part "testimonio," part linguistic and cultural
analysis, and part art criticism--this is also a history of New
York Latino neighborhoods during this period of devastating
disinvestment and gentrification, as well as a personal, heart-felt
meditation on the art of listening and the ethical limits of
representing queer Latino lives.
