  "Diaz does it again" by floydsbo (see profile) 12/19/12

I may qualify as a stalker when it comes to Junot Diaz. I'm a woman and his stories shouldn't be attractive to any self respecting woman. At the same time, his language (okay, so he curses a whole lot) is beautiful and seductive. You can feel the vibrant life coursing through the veins of every person in every story, feel the heat, the cold, the sweat, the exhaustion. So a man can't keep it zipped, can't commit fully to anyone...who cares? Reading these stories is a delicious delight and I want to eat each one slowly, over and over again. Enjoy!

Just felt it was too disrespectful of women.
