Sánchez se ha descrito a sí misma como paria, inadaptada y un chasco: agitadora melancólica y malhablada que se pintaba las uñas de negro, pero también disfrutaba la comedia y tenía el sueño improbable de ser poeta. Veinticinco años más tarde se ha convertido en una galardonada novelista, poeta y ensayista, pero no ha perdido la risa incontrolable, su áspero ingenio y sus singulares poderes para percibir el mundo a su alrededor. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e En estos ensayos, que tratan de todo --desde la sexualidad hasta el feminismo blanco, pasando por la depresión debilitante y las búsquedas redentoras de la espiritualidad, el arte y los viajes--, Sánchez revela una vida interior rica en ideas, autoconciencia y percepción: la de una mujer que trazó un camino enteramente de su propia factura. Atrevido, perspicaz, incorregible y brutalmente honesto, \u003ci\u003eLlorando en el baño\u003c\/i\u003e es Sánchez en su máxima expresión: un libro que te hará sentir ese subidón que resulta de revelaciones íntimas y horas de plática con tu mejor amiga. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cb\u003eENGLISH DESCRIPTION\u003c\/b\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cb\u003eFrom the New York Times bestselling author of \u003ci\u003eI Am Not Your Perfect Mexican Daughter\u003c\/i\u003e, an utterly original memoir-in-essays that is asdeeply moving as it is hilarious.\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003eGrowing up as the daughter of Mexican immigrants in Chicago in the nineties, Erika Sánchez was a self-described pariah, misfit, and disappointment--a foul-mouthed, melancholic rabble-rouser who painted her nails black but also loved comedy, often laughing so hard with her friends that she had to leave her school classroom. Twenty-five years later, she's now an award-winning novelist, poet, and essayist, but she's still got an irrepressible laugh, an acerbic wit, and singular powers of perception about the world around her. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eIn these essays, Sánchez writes about everything from sex to white feminism to debilitating depression, revealing an interior life rich with ideas, self-awareness, and perception. Raunchy, insightful, unapologetic, and brutally honest, \u003ci\u003eCrying in the Bathroom\u003c\/i\u003e is Sánchez at her best--a book that will make you feel that post-confessional high that comes from talking for hours with your best friend.\u003ch3\u003eAuthor Biography\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eErika L.
