Camila Sosa Villada in conversation with Mercedes Posada
Universidad Tecnológica de Bolívar (sede Manga)
Winner of the Sor Juana Inés de la Cruz Prize for Las malas, Camila Sosa Villada (Argentina) has published poetry, autobiographical essays and fiction. Her most recent book, Tesis sobre una domesticación, dissects the lives of a peaceful middle-class family, one that hides histories of violence and asphyxiation, as well as love and tenderness. The protagonist, a trans actress, finds she is trapped by marriage and social convention. Sosa Villada tells of her experiences, tinged with both passion and guilt, while also reflecting on the male and the female, family and art, maternity and class difference, subjugation and love. In conversation with Mercedes Posada.
