The book presents the story of Cris Miró, one of the most well-known transgender women in Argentina. Miró was a symbol of the Argentina of the nineties of the last millennium. Her irruption in the public space is understood only if one takes into account the political, economic, social, sexual, and moral changes of a country in the abysses of the end of the century.
Miró's body, paradoxically, Sanzol assures, became a kind of sign that made explicit the double standard that underlay and underlies Argentines: spectators paid a ticket to see her in the theater, while the State, with its laws, condemned to jail the other transvestites for the mere fact of wearing clothes that did not correspond to their gender.
