Naming the Body: A Queer Woman's Restorative Mapping of the Self - Paperback

Myers, Robin: - María Mínguez Arias is a fiction and non-fiction bilingual writer, accidental editor, translator, and journalist born in Spain and residing in California for the past three decades. She is the author of Nombrar el cuerpo (2022) named among the Best Queer Lit of the year in Spain, the Int'l Latino Book Award winning novel Patricia sigue aquí (2018), and co-editor of #NiLocasNiSolas: narrativa escrita por mujeres en Estados Unidos (2023). Her essays, short stories and reviews appear in anthologies and journals in the US, Spain, and Mexico. She delves into her identity as an immigrant, queer woman, mother, and Spanish-language writer in the US to explore subjects such as memory (digital, familial, and historical), motherhood, language, the body, and everyday life and strength as experienced on the margins. She is part of what has been coined the #NewLatinoBoom: a 21st century movement of writers, editors, publishers, and other literary professionals that, aided by all things digital, are collaborating in doing the work in Spanish and in the United States. She works as Co-Director of feminist press Aunt Lute Books in the San Francisco Bay Area, where she lives with her partner and their two young adult kids.
