Detrás de los muros de un convento, reina el silencio, solo salpicado por el murmullo de las oraciones o los melismas de los cantos litúrgicos. O así es como solemos imaginarlo, pero la realidad es otra. Un espacio creado por mujeres y para mujeres, con otras formas de amar, cuidar, organizarse, crear y convivir. Y, sobre todo, podemos constatar que TODO LO QUE NOS PASA, YA LE PASÓ A UNA MONJA DEL BARROCO.

Sinopsis

Josh Kilmer-Purcell lived a double life. By day, he was a successful young advertising executive. By night, he would trade in his corporate uniform for high heels and sequins, and perform in downtown New York nightclubs as a drag queen called Acquadisiac before returning to the uptown penthouse he shared with his crack-addicted male escort boyfriend. In this powerfully written, emotional rollercoaster of a memoir, Kilmer-Purcell blends the glittering and highly dramatic world of nightclubs, drugs and drag with a soulful and ironic perspective on his own journey through love and life. Told with a raw and honest voice that conveys hard truths with unflinching courage, "I Am Not Myself These Days" is a stunningly witty and ultimately deeply moving tour de force by a remarkable new talent
