Lipstick Con Chorizo Tommy Villalobos

Lipstick con Chorizo is a Chicano romantic-comedic-drama. Of sorts. This book will make you...will tell you...well, you'll see. Two combustible sisters cross swords, taking generous swipes at each other's cabeza. One young man seeking love displays his plumage while a young woman yawns. There is also a son who wants to be somebody, anybody. And this tale is garnished by a Grand Méjicana who is a stellar cook, animal importer (when the sun goes down), and cultural cop. All these characters find a way to end up in the same casa, sticking their legs out in front of each other in a fierce quest for hidden wealth. Interspersed into the lively dialogue is the culture and milieu of East L. A., which in the story could substitute for any barrio anybody ever heard of. In otras palabras, it could take place any place. This story is for all you who love Comedy or Romance or Drama; and for all of you who hate Comedy or Romance or Drama.
