Kites in the Night by Blaise Gacoscos

“Kites in the Night” is Blaise Campo Gacoscos’ own life retold as the story of Victor Molina—gay, in his 40s, a teacher living in Manila. Each of the eight chapters is a part of Victor’s life told in direct, unsentimental prose: his childhood in Ilocos Norte, his experience of love in adolescence, his first job as an entertainment reporter, the death of his mother, the return of his estranged father.
