A Guide to Recognizing Your Saints 2006
Discovering the saints in their lives, A Guide to HARSH STREETS OF TODAY, a true story set in the hot, sweaty, and violent streets of Astoria Queens, New York. The events in this story not only change Dito Montiel’s life, but also affect everyone around him. Caught between his sick father, despotic friend, and his only protector Antonio’s seductive charms, the war-like surroundings, and the seductive desires of youth, Dito Montiel can hardly suppress his desire to escape from there and from everything he knows and understands. He knows that he can only pay the price for his sins when he returns to Queens 15 years later and confronts the “saints” who once shaped his life.
