A richly imaginative, surreal and deeply moving novel from Argentina about a group of travesti sex workers who adopt a baby boy

'A work of searing, confrontational beauty' Juno Mac, co-author of Revolting Prostitutes

'Fun, tragic, political and full of marvel ... It will break your heart and at the same time make you want to laugh and dance' Mariana EnrĂ­quez, author of The Dangers of Smoking in Bed

'A beautiful novel, moving, disturbing, raw and honest. In skilfully rendered language, charged with poetic energy, it takes us deep into the world of trans prostitution and explores the violent and tender bonds that unite the women who inhabit it' Fernanda Melchor, author of Hurricane Season

'The Queens of Sarmiento Park blew Argentina's collective mind with its exquisite power, tenderness and riotous imagination' Carolina De Robertis, author of The President and the Frog

'Confronting, radical, hopeful, The Queens of Sarmiento Park does one of the most important things a book (or a life) can do. It looks at all the rubble and the dirt and asks: "Can we make anything beautiful from this?"' Keiran Goddard, author of Hourglass

'An exquisite book full of poetry, warmth and magical, raw honesty. Simply beautiful' Juno Roche, author of A Working-Class Family Ages Badly
