Written by Larry Mitchell and illustrated by Ned Asta, Maricas y sus amigas entre revoluciones is a cult, utopian, and queer text originally published by Calamus Press in 1977. A mix of fable and manifesto, the text places us in Ramrod, a declining empire where we meet different communities of maricas, women, queens, queer men, and women who love other women, and their ways of surviving against white men and the world they have created. With enthusiastic reception lasting over four decades, this book offers a sharp critique of capitalism, assimilation, and patriarchy that remains deeply relevant today. This first Spanish edition comes forty-four years after the original English publication and recalls the text’s potential at a crucial moment for struggles against gender normativity and movements for sexual dissent. This edition includes a foreword by Jesús Alcaide, independent curator and researcher, and Jonathan Snyder, professor of literary and cultural studies, who are also responsible for the translation.
