Summaries

A narcoleptic transgender woman who yearns to have sex reassignment surgery dreams up elaborate musical numbers in which she's the star.

Colloquially-told story of a few days in the life of Marieta, who's saving money for the last operation in her transition from male to female. She works as a prostitute in Madrid and longs for a legitimate job. Whenever she builds up her savings, her housemate and best friend Tomás finds ways to spend, lose, or cost her those funds. She meets Raúl, whom she likes and who likes her; the trouble is he also likes that part of her she wants removed. If that's not enough, she also has narcolepsy, and when she conks out, she dreams of musical-theater numbers in which she's the singing and dancing star. Are these dreams always going to be 20 centimeters out of reach?—<[email protected]>
