Camila Sosa Villada and Sonia Pulido

Camila understands, from a very early age, that the identity the world assigns to her does not match the one she feels as her own. When she moves to Córdoba (Argentina) to study, precariousness pushes her to spend nights in the park, where she finds a diverse group of trans women living around Tía Encarna’s pink house. There, bonds are woven that help them endure police violence, social stigma, and economic insecurity. In that environment, Camila listens, narrates, and begins to weave her own story of transition into adulthood.

Las malas is a dazzling novel that turns the life of a group of travestis into a mythical, fierce, and human territory. Camila Sosa Villada builds an intimate and at the same time questioning testimony that expands the field of narration about trans identity and experience. Celebrated by critics and readers, internationally awarded, and translated into numerous languages, Las malas has established itself as an essential book of contemporary Latin American literature.

The graphic language of Sonia Pulido—her vibrant palette, strong contrasts, large and empowered bodies—amplifies the critical meaning of the text while highlighting the tenderness of the travesti community. The frames filled with symbols—cars, lips, eyes, moons, weapons, blades, rosaries, tears—function almost like a trans altarpiece, a profane altar where danger, desire, popular religiosity, and humor coexist.
