The Girls Who Read In the Bathroom

When was the last time you read what you really wanted?
 
In the middle of the night, at dawn, in the bathroom or under the furtive lamp in our room. So not to do sports, homework or because we simply did not find anything more appealing. All readers and writers have been children, one day, and many of us have been forced to keep our passion in the strictest privacy. We have been girls who read in the bathroom, between hiding and adventure, and we read and wrote exactly what we wanted at all times. What has happened, however, since then? When was it that someone began to tell us what was legible and what not, what could be written and that it was better for us to keep inside the drawer?
 
Between essay and narration, between reflection and experience, Les nenes que llegien al lavabo (The Girls Who Read In the Bathroom) is a cry for freedom in reading and writing. A journey through the episodes of the most intimate and at the same time collective memory of all those people who love literature who, as adults, have dared to read and write far from canons and side glances.
