For the first time in Spanish, the iconic autobiographical novel by Eileen Myles, a cult work of American queer literature.

Chelsea Girls is a high-voltage autobiographical novel that narrates Eileen Myles' youthful experiences in New York during the seventies and eighties. With explosive, irreverent, and honest prose, Myles describes the underground scene in all its rawness, her ups and downs with alcohol and drugs, her dedication to poetry, and her deep desire and love for women.

With humor and freshness, alternating bittersweet adolescent memories within a working-class Catholic family with sleepless party nights, unforgettable characters, and disturbing sex scenes, Myles builds a portrait of the formation of a character who refuses to be pigeonholed or conform to any convention.

Chelsea Girls was originally published in 1994 and remains a reference for freedom and experimentation whose reading captivates masterfully.
