Finalista del Premio Lambda en Ficción Gay 2024 Uno de los mejores libros de Amazon de 2024 hasta ahora Galardonada con el National Book Award 2023, una novela deslumbrante que desentierra un episodio fundacional de la comunidad queer y explora los orígenes de su patologización.«Se difuminan los límites de la Historia, la autobiografía y la ficción con el arte. Hermoso». -Sam Sacks, The Wall Street Journal
En un remoto asilo en el desierto, un hombre joven acompaña a un moribundo. Han pasado diez años desde que coincidieran brevemente en una institución psiquiátrica. Ahora, el que está punto de morir le pide al otro que termine el proyecto al que ha dedicado su vida: la reconstrucción de la singular historia de Jan Gay. Esta investigadora, escritora y activista queer de principios del siglo XX dedicó su vida a documentar las vidas lesbianas y la cultura nudista en Estados Unidos y Europa, y sin embargo su trabajo fue el origen de un manual sobre la homosexualidad como perversión titulado Desviaciones sexuales: un estudio de los patrones homosexuales. La lectura de las misteriosas páginas tachadas de dicho manual infame acompañará las vigilias diurnas que siguen a las calurosas noches de insomnio de aquellos dos hombres. En las horas de oscuridad mantendrán una larga conversación sobre sus vidas y las de Jan Gay y los sujetos que participaron en la truncada investigación. En este atmosférico relato de amor, que es a la vez un collage documental y un homenaje a Pedro Páramo y El beso de la mujer araña, Justin Torres desentierra un episodio borrado de la historia estadounidense para explorar los orígenes de la patologización de la comunidad queer; una bella e imaginativa novela que ha sido merecedora del National Book Award.

Out in the desert in a place called the Palace, a young man tends to a dying soul, someone he once knew briefly but who has haunted the edges of his life: Juan Gay. Playful raconteur, child lost and found and lost, guardian of the institutionalized, Juan has a project to pass along, one built around a true artifact of a book―Sex Variants: A Study of Homosexual Patterns―and its devastating history. This book contains accounts collected in the early twentieth century from queer subjects by a queer researcher, Jan Gay, whose groundbreaking work was then co-opted by a committee, her name buried. The voices of these subjects have been filtered, muted, but it is possible to hear them from within and beyond the text, which, in Juan's tattered volumes, has been redacted with black marker on nearly every page. As Juan waits for his end, he and the narrator recount for each other moments of joy and oblivion; they resurrect loves, lives, mothers, fathers, minor heroes. In telling their own stories and the story of the book, they resist the ravages of memory and time. The past is with us, beside us, ahead of us; what are we to create from its gaps and erasures? A book about storytelling―its legacies, dangers, delights, and potential for change―and a bold exploration of form, art, and love, Justin Torres's Blackouts uses fiction to see through the inventions of history and narrative. A marvel of creative imagination, it draws on testimony, photographs, illustrations, and a range of influences as it insists that we look long and steadily at what we have inherited and what we have made―a world full of ghostly shadows and flashing moments of truth. A reclamation of ransacked history, a celebration of defiance, and a transformative encounter, Blackouts mines the stories that have been kept from us and brings them into the light.

Decent install power strip
Style: 20W_USB-C, Size: 6FT
I really like this search strip as I installed the inside of my RV the only problem I have with it is if you were using bulky transformer style plugs like that of a iMac laptop, charger or other big transformers, you will not be able to use the USB outlets in the center and I don’t know if that’s by design to limit current flow, but it sucks.

An absolute must for countertops used as workstations.
Style: 20W_USB-C, Size: 6FT
These were the best thing I did when we had to remodel and I added a large built in countertop. They are made well, and easy to install! They are very versatile since they are designed with both USB-A and USB-C ports along with the standard 110V plugs. I use these with my 3-D printers, laser engravers, computers, printers, and even a few coffee pots!

No issues, and no instructions.
Style: 20W_USB-C, Size: 6FT
No, you don’t need instructions, because the hole dimensions are in one of the photos. 4” x 1.73” is perfect. Plug it in and all of the ports in both that we bought worked perfectly.
