Download or read book Las Biuty Queens written by Iván Monalisa Ojeda and published by Astra Publishing House. This book was released on 2021-06-01 with total page 177 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "A dazzling collection of stories based in part on his/her life... Readers will want to consume these bonbons slowly because they are so rich and delicious." – Gay City News "Chilean American writer Ojeda dazzles and devastates in this rich collection about a group of trans Latinx immigrants as they try to make it in New York City." – Publishers Weekly Drawing from his/her own experience as a trans performer, sex worker, and undocumented immigrant, Iván Monalisa Ojeda chronicles the lives of Latinx queer and trans immigrants in New York City. Whether she is struggling with addiction, clashing with law enforcement, or is being subjected to personal violence, each character choses her own path of defiance, often responding to her fate with with irreverent dark humor. What emerges is the portrait of a group of friends who express unquestioning solidarity and love for each other, and of an unfamiliar, glittering and violent, New York City that will draw readers in and swallow them whole. On every page, Iván Monalisa's unique narrative talent is on display as he/she artfully transforms the language of the streets, making it his/her own -- rich with rhythm and debauchery. This bold new collection positions Ojeda as a fresh and necessary voice within the canon of world literature.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Migrar o perecer perfila la Australia que se esconde tras el brillo de las olas en la piel bronceada de los jóvenes surfistas. Los protagonistas de este reportaje abandonaron el lugar donde nacieron y emprendieron el viaje a Australia con la esperanza de labrarse un futuro mejor. Ellos son la historia viva de este país joven moldeado a base de oleadas migratorias. A los primeros colonos británicos les siguieron italianos, griegos y españoles, vietnamitas, libaneses, indios y chinos.Hoy Australia es uno de los países con más diversidad cultural, lingüística y religiosa del mundo. Entre sus ciudadanos se cuentan más de trescientas nacionalidades, más de doscientos países de origen y más de doscientas lenguas. Un tercio de los habitantes nació en otro país y un 45 % son hijos de inmigrantes.Sobre el papel, Australia parece un experimento migratorio que ha triunfado. En realidad, es el laboratorio de pruebas para un fenómeno global, el del multiculturalismo, que sigue en fase de ensayo.Los nueve retratos de Migrar o perecer hablan de racismo, islamofobia, manipulación mediática y marginación. También de individuos que trabajan duro, que luchan por salir adelante, por dejar huella en un país que forja día a día su identidad.
