Original title: "La torre de marfil 2: Experiencias de una niña transsexual" (The Ivory Tower: Experiences of a Transsexual Girl 2) by Ernesto Rubio Sánchez.
"This second part of "La torre de marfil" invites the reading public to fully delve into the development of the central character's life, accompanying her from her childhood to her adulthood in the midst of the Movida Madrileña and in a time marked by discrimination where there was no concept of transsexuality and all sexual behavior towards the same gender was synonymous with AIDS.
Within this medium, our character will try to assert her right to live as she perceives herself. Can she make it? And if so, in an environment that will demand her courage, conviction and militancy, will she enjoy the same rights as everyone else or will she continue to be a second-class citizen? However, this fight does not end on the last page of this installment; In the next one, titled Ramón is my daughter, the characters and their stories will mature, always trying to manage their lives in a society that, despite proclaiming itself progressive, still hides the prejudice of a divided world."
