Thunderpuss: A Queens Tale

By Alejandro Jiménez

From the very beginning, Alejandro Jimenez endured horrendous struggles. Stripped from his childhood home after his mother burned his feet with cigarettes, the 1-year-old baby was thrust into an unforgiving foster care system. Sexually abused by an older neighbor and beat physically by an alcoholic father, young Alejandro grew to hate the world and resent his place in it. Embraced by a cadre of larger-than-life characters in the underground gay club scene in Florida as a teenager, he threw himself into life in the fast lane. Ultimately, it was hair that saved him.

Poignant, touching, humorous, and, at times, tragically heartbreaking, Thunderpuss is a memoir like no other. Alejandro recounts his life with grace and wisdom, without malice or judgment. The result is a breathtaking book that leaves readers feeling simultaneously beat down and uplifted. It is a tour-de-force that doesn't let you go until the final page.
