A la hora de subir al barco en su España natal, apenas una valija y la ilusión de una vida mejor lejos de su tierra son pocas cosas pero suficientes, o eso cree el emigrante. Porque muchas otras cosas, de las que aún no puede medir su relevancia, lo acompañan y pesan ya desde el puerto mismo de partida. En esta novela ese inmigrante es Leandro Quiroz. Pero pasará la vida, y será Ernesto, uno de sus hijos, quien viajará al pasado de Leandro. Y lleva el hijo, como trajo el padre, una carga muy grande, de momentos vividos y no entendidos. Con un exquisito manejo del lenguaje, Cristina Sánchez va desgajando los sucesos familiares, sociales y políticos. (del Prólogo de Claudia Cortalezzi)
'Los Invisibles'
Examining the social, medical and cultural history of male homosexuality in Spain, this book looks at it from the time homosexuality came to be an issue of medical, legal and cultural concern. Research into homosexuality in Spain is in its infancy. The last ten or fifteen years have seen a proliferation of studies on gender in Spain but much of this work has concentrated on women's history, literature and femininity. In contrast to existing research which concentrates on literature and literary figures, "Los Invisibles" focuses on the change in cultural representation of same-sex activity of through medicalisation, social and political anxieties about race and the late emergence of homosexual sub-cultures in the last quarter of the twentieth century. As such, this book constitutes an analysis of discourses and ideas from a social history and medical history position. Much of the research for the book was supported by a grant from the Wellcome Trust to research the medicalisation of homosexuality in Spain.
