Or that Luis Cernuda, one of the greats of the Generation of '27, wrote \u003cem\u003ePoemas para un cuerpo\u003c\/em\u003e inspired by a Mexican bodybuilder he fell in love with? Did you also not know that Francis Bacon, one of the most important British painters of the 20th century, died in Madrid because he came to Spain to meet a boyfriend, or that Carmen Conde, the first woman to join the Royal Spanish Academy, shared much of her life with another woman?\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis is just a small sample of the names you will find in the pages of this compelling essay which, with a lively and direct style, aims to give their rightful place to artists who had to hide due to their sexual dissidence or risk suffering the consequences of living freely.
