Spa: El subtítulo de la traducción es engañoso por decir lo menos. Estos relatos no tienen nada "contra" la homofobia. Estos textos, si bien muestran la manera en la que se ven las identidades queer en el continente africano, pero perpetúa el "al final mueren porque homosexuales", la violencia es casi aceptada (y romantizada, erotizada) por los personajes, algunos textos son difíciles de leer.
Eng: I read the Spanish translation of this work. To keep it short, the foreword and the subtitle of the books are misleading. May look for this book in English soon.
