“Naming the Body: A Queer Woman’s Restorative Mapping of the Self” forthcoming Pride 2026

When you sign your first contract in English because the translation of your essay collection “Nombrar el cuerpo” (Editorial Egales/España; ElBeiSmAn PrESs/USA), named among the Best Queer Lit of the Year in Spain, just found a welcoming family and home in the United States of Trump.

NAMING THE BODY: A QUEER WOMAN’S RESTORATIVE MAPPING OF THE SELF will be published by Mouthfeel Press in 2026 as translated by Robin Myers. It means a lot to me that Robin was able to capture the narrator’s voice so meaninfully, and that my English speaking family, friends and community now will be able to access my work.

Graciasss Robin for your beautiful translation y a mi tocaya María Miranda Maloney for openning her publishing doors to us. 🙏🏼

Naming the Body arrives at a time when women’s reproductive rights, and all that is queer and inmigrant is under threat. It does take a village to be able to live and write with dignity, and today I am a little bit more hopeful porque, obviamente, ¡nos tenemos!
