The story of Nova Bastante is a journey full of anecdotes, characters, and challenges, until reaching the desired realization of the goal, i.e. male to female transition. In the book, we make an intense journey through the life of a transgender activist, which is An authentic survival manual that brings light to the world of transsexuality.
From Richy Bastante to Nova, it is a unique case in the historical Spanish media. The whole country attended her change from boy to woman. It was a sex change televised and counted by chapters. It was a punk story of a small-town boy who becomes, with the tools at hand, the woman he wanted to be. A story also with nods to classic cinema. With 'Nova, de niño a mujer', Nova, with the help of her biographer, the journalist Oscar de la Hoz, reviews the past without duplicity and announces a firm footing future.
Nova Bastante, formerly known as Ricardo, is a fascinating individual whose journey has taken unexpected twists. Let’s delve into the intriguing story of this person:
Richy Bastante: Initially, Richy Bastante gained prominence as the president of Yurena’s fan club during the “tamarismo” phenomenon. Yurena, also known as Tamara, was a singer who captured attention. Richy was a spirited character, unafraid to express himself, and even declared himself transgender later on.
Ricardo’s appearance has transformed significantly. Gone are the days of makeup and flamboyance. Instead, he lives a life free from sin, without makeup, and evading fantasy. His YouTube channel, now renamed “Nueva ESPIRITUALIDAD,” reflects his new reality. It contains remnants of his past, including confrontations with La Veneno, TV interviews, and discussions about his autobiography, “Nova: De Niño a Mujer.” Ricardo’s journey - from Richy to Nova, then Izan, and finally Ricardo - has been a rollercoaster of identity exploration and spiritual awakening.
