Written theatre and a writing performance where members of the public can be observers, readers, voyeurs and potential writers.
Writers from Latin America and the Iberian Peninsula enter a chat room to spend an uninterrupted twelve hours delving into the book Les 120 jornades de Sodoma. A reinterpretation, a luminous and lazy genital forest, a narrative mantra: brazen poetry, written and stripped down by the anonymity of them all.

She is a philosopher and writer, as well as a lecturer in Ethics and Political Thought at the European University of Madrid. She is a specialist in contemporary feminist thought, gender theories and post-colonialism.
