At last! for how many months I’m just done reading the book Orosa-Nakpil Malate. Yeah, don’t tell me I am a slow reader! I know! And it’s just that I also don’t have much time to read it continuously. But the heck congratulate me I’m done! Thanks to Julia for letting me borrow this book, it’s worth to read.
I found the story of Orosa-Nakpil Malate inspiring and informative. Some wild thoughts while reading actually made me conscious that I am even seen with defensive gestures while reading not letting someone see me that I am actually now on the part which is on it’s climax of doing some intimate scenes (if you’ll picture it out like in the movies bed scenes, or kindda porn clip your watching. peace!).
The book is actually a masterpiece of opening the minds of the readers about AIDS. It is made colorful through the story of John David de Jesus’ life, Orosa-Nakpil Malate, love, hatred, forgiveness, and dedication to help the people to fight against AIDS as he became a well known Doctor.
This is not just another gay story since it is informative regarding the reality about AIDS. The norms concludes that gays are carriers of the said illness. But you will find it in the story the truth on how AIDS is acquired. It is even passed on through simple blood transfers from one person to another.
I got confused three-fourth of the story, though felt enjoyed and troubled. It is on the last parts of the book that you get to realize it’s essence. Flashbacks of the story would tell you what happened as to why it was. In the end, I found out who was this person narrating the whole story awesomeness! And, Overall, the twists of the story and how it is presented deserves an awesome mark!
