A Cup of Water Under My Bed: Pride Month Author Talk

Pride Month Author Talk & Book Signing
Daisy Hernandez; A Cup of Water Under My Bed
In this lyrical, coming-of-age memoir, Daisy Hernández chronicles what the women in her Cuban-Colombian family taught her about love, money, and race.
These lessons—rooted in women’s experiences of migration, colonization, y cariño—define in evocative detail what it means to grow up female in an immigrant home, and coming to identify as bisexual leads her to unexpected questions. A heartfelt exploration of family, identity, and language, A Cup of Water Under My Bed is ultimately a daughter’s story of finding herself and her community, and of creating a new, queer life.
