A dark satirical work of science fiction.
"The Diary of a Sugarbaby is The Handmaid's Tale on steroids! Captivating and graphic." --Manhattan Book Review
In J.Q. Gagliastro's dystopian future, the aging patriarchy and rising hate crimes have led to a mass genocide of queer Americans. Oppression has killed what was left of the United and sired what has now become the Divided, a world where human trafficking is legal, the youth are sexualized, and heteronormativity is enforced. Dime, a former sugarbaby, chronicles his experiences as the nation around him embraces gerontocracy, and he himself becomes the property of an Elder. Deprived of his freedoms, his family, and even music, Dime clings to his memories all the while grappling with the concepts of family, home, and depth in love. A scathing satire on queer erasure, a cautionary tale on the capitalization of American universities, and a brutally honest reflection of its time!
