De la autora de Yo no soy tu perfecta hija mexicana, bestseller del New York Times, nos llegan estos originalsimos ensayos autobiogrficos, profundamente conmovedores y de una comicidad que desarma.Hija de inmigrantes mexicanos y criada en Chicago en la dcada de los noventa, Erika L. Snchez se ha descrito a s misma como paria, inadaptada y un chasco: agitadora melanclica y malhablada que se pintaba las uas de negro, pero tambin disfrutaba la comedia y tena el sueo improbable de ser poeta. Veinticinco aos ms tarde se ha convertido en una galardonada novelista, poeta y ensayista, pero no ha perdido la risa incontrolable, su spero ingenio y sus singulares poderes para percibir el mundo a su alrededor.En estos ensayos, que tratan de todo -desde la sexualidad hasta el feminismo blanco, pasando por la depresin debilitante y las bsquedas redentoras de la espiritualidad, el arte y los viajes-, Snchez revela una vida interior rica en ideas, autoconciencia y percepcin: la de una mujer que traz un camino enteramente de su propia factura. Atrevido, perspicaz, incorregible y brutalmente honesto, Llorando en el bao es Snchez en su mxima expresin: un libro que te har sentir ese subidn que resulta de revelaciones ntimas y horas de pltica con tu mejor amiga.ENGLISH DESCRIPTIONFrom the New York Times bestselling author of I Am Not Your Perfect Mexican Daughter, an utterly original memoir-in-essays that is asdeeply moving as it is hilarious.Growing up as the daughter of Mexican immigrants in Chicago in the nineties, Erika Snchez was a self-described pariah, misfit, and disappointment-a foul-mouthed, melancholic rabble-rouser who painted her nails black but also loved comedy, often laughing so hard with her friends that she had to leave her school classroom. Twenty-five years later, shes now an award-winning novelist, poet, and essayist, but shes still got an irrepressible laugh, an acerbic wit, and singular powers of perception about the world around her.In these essays, Snchez writes about everything from sex to white feminism to debilitating depression, revealing an interior life rich with ideas, self-awareness, and perception. Raunchy, insightful, unapologetic, and brutally honest, Crying in the Bathroom is Snchez at her best-a book that will make you feel that post-confessional high that comes from talking for hours with your best friend.
