De la autora de Yo no soy tu perfecta hija mexicana, bestseller del New York Times, nos llegan estos original?simos ensayos autobiogr?ficos, profundamente conmovedores y de una comicidad que desarma. Hija de inmigrantes mexicanos y criada en Chicago en la d?cada de los noventa, Erika L. S?nchez se ha descrito a s? misma como paria, inadaptada y un chasco: agitadora melanc?lica y malhablada que se pintaba las u?as de negro, pero tambi?n disfrutaba la comedia y ten?a el sue?o improbable de ser poeta. Veinticinco a?os m?s 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 depresi?n debilitante y las b?squedas redentoras de la espiritualidad, el arte y los viajes?, S?nchez revela una vida interior rica en ideas, autoconciencia y percepci?n: la de una mujer que traz? un camino enteramente de su propia factura. Atrevido, perspicaz, incorregible y brutalmente honesto, Llorando en el ba?o es S?nchez en su m?xima expresi?n: un libro que te har? sentir ese subid?n que resulta de revelaciones ?ntimas y horas de pl?tica con tu mejor amiga. ENGLISH DESCRIPTION From 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 S?nchez 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, she?s now an award-winning novelist, poet, and essayist, but she?s still got an irrepressible laugh, an acerbic wit, and singular powers of perception about the world around her. In these essays, S?nchez 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 S?nchez at her best?a book that will make you feel that post-confessional high that comes from talking for hours with your best friend.
