Chris Gonzales’ favorite author who is no longer alive is Borges, mostly for his sheer imagination. His favorite living author would be a toss-up between Junot Díaz and Colson Whitehead as he admires their freedom of language. He has no favorite genre or theme in his writings or literature, but is specifically interested in Latino/a literature and narrative theory. He likes an in-your-face kind of character narrator that is telling you about his or her life—and perhaps the life of someone else. He also thinks character narrators are far more interesting than third-person narrators because of their fallibleness.
