A deeply personal account of the life and experiences of a group of travesties (trans women) living in Argentina. The book primarily follows Camila as she navigates her life as a sex worker. CSV does not shy away from the brutalities she faces every day purely because she exists and refuses to flinch away from herself and her identity. In a raw and real story with a dash of magical realism you are drawn to Camila and the other travestis as they grow up and into themselves in a world determined to see them gone.
