San Antonio, a vibrant and culturally diverse city, has a rich tapestry of stories to tell. "San Antonio Stories" is a captivating collection of forty true tales, epic adventures, and intimate revelations that delve into the heart of this bustling metropolis.
The book offers a diverse range of stories, from hilarious chronicles of being crowned Turkey Queen of Cuero to poignant accounts of finding one's place as an immigrant or refugee, the emotional toll of being on the front lines of the AIDS epidemic, and the redemptive power of writing My Little Pony fan fiction. Each story is as varied and nuanced as the city it explores, with roots in its streets, suburbs, and history.
From tales of being stranded in Uganda to growing up in a Mexican border barrio, from surviving swine flu in Thailand to being among Harvard University's first Black architecture students, from childhood in Iran to leaving India for a new life in Texas, these personal narratives capture the essence of San Antonio. Each story possesses a unique soul that is distinctly "puro San Antonio."
These personal narratives were originally performed in front of an audience at Worth Repeating, Texas Public Radio's live storytelling series. Writers include Heather Armstrong, Tanveer Arora, Jennie Badger, Kiran Kaur Bains, Marion Barth, Sheila Black, Barbara Bowie, Norma Elia Cantú, Kelly Grey Carlisle, Cary Clack, Jess Elizarraras, Georgia Erck, Tiffany Farias-Sokoloski, Elizabeth Fauerso, Everett L. Fly, Larry Garza, Lorenzo Gomez III, Mike Knoop, Da.
"San Antonio Stories" is a testament to the resilience, creativity, and diversity of the people who call this city home. It is a must-read for anyone who loves storytelling, adventure, and the human experience.
