One Hundred Bottles, with its intersecting characters and
unresolved whodunits, can be read as a murder mystery. But it's
really a survivor's story. In a voice that blends gossip,
storytelling, and literature, Z--the vivacious heroine of Portela's
award-winning novel--relates her rum-soaked encounters with the
lesbian underground, the characters carving up her home, and the
terrifying-but-irresistible Moises. As entertaining as any
detective drama, One Hundred Bottles is ultimately made real by
very rough love, intense friendship, and something small that
decides to live.
