Soy una tonta por quererte
Sosa Villada, Camila
In the 1990s, a woman makes a living as a rented girlfriend for gay men. In a Harlem den, a Latin transvestite gets to know none other than Billie Holiday. A group of rugbiers haggle over the price of a night of sex and in return they get what they deserve. Nuns, grandmothers, children and dogs are never what they seem... The nine stories that make up this book are inhabited by extravagant and profoundly human characters who face an ominous reality in ways as strange as themselves. I'm a fool for loving you confirms that Camila Sosa Villada is one of the most powerful and original voices in contemporary literature. Owner of a dazzling and daring imagination, she is capable both of speaking the language of a victim of the Mexican inquisition and of building a dystopian universe where the transvestite existence takes its revenge. Owner of a unique style, Sosa crosses the limits between reality and magic in these stories, honoring oral tradition with unparalleled ease and solidity.
