Notes
Description
"México, 1920. Mientras el país sale de la Revolución, una mujer enfrenta una hazaña aún más grandiosa: la conquista de su cuerpo. La poetisa y fotógrafa Cayetana de la Cruz y Schneider está lista para desandar pasos y acepta desnudar su alma ante un periodista que, como todos aquellos que han sido tocados por su obra, está intrigado por conocer las confesiones de esta artista. Pero en el diálogo se cuelan los retazos de un misterioso diario que habla de monstruos y fantasmas, así como de los miedos de un tímido niño que sólo soñaba con probarse los vestidos de su madre y que ya perfilaba a la mujer fuerte y decidida que con los años sacudió el espíritu de su época. Con atractivos toques góticos y una sensibilidad que rezuma poesía, Tapizado corazón de orquídeas negras es un Bildungsroman sobre las prisiones del cuerpo y el sorprendente debut de una de las primeras narradoras trans mexicanas, Évolet Aceves, que nos ofrece una hermosa novela de resistencia y libertad." --page 4 of the cover
Description
Mexico, 1920. As the country emerges from the Revolution, a woman faces an even greater feat: the conquest of her body. The poet and photographer Cayetana de la Cruz y Schneider is ready to retrace steps and agrees to bare her soul before a journalist who, like all those who have been touched by her work, is intrigued to know this artist's confessions. But the dialogue sneaks in fragments of a mysterious diary that talks about monsters and ghosts, as well as the fears of a shy child who only dreamed of trying on his mother's dresses and who already outlined the strong and determined woman who with the years shook the spirit of his time.
