- “We, the forgotten ⁇ ones, no longer have names. It's like we never existed,”Born in a remote town at the end of Argentine dictatorship in 1982’, Camila tries to find her own identity, accept it and grop how to survive in the nineties. Camila, who grew up torn between the sketchy affection of an orphan mother and the violence of an alcoholic father, finds herself working in Córdoba's famous Sarmiento Park. Here, in addition to struggle, he embarks on life by establishing a world from scratch with the group of friends with whom he learns friendship, sisterhood, solidarity and sharing.Bad Girls is a rite of passage, a horror and fairy tale, a group portrait, an explosive manifesto, a guided tour of the author's imagination, and a unique chronicle.Back cover“Sosa Villada is an extraordinary and fascinating storyteller.” Esquire“Sosa is building a language in the Villa that comes from dreams, fairy tales and adventure novels... a literary excitement.” Rolling stone A life reminiscent of “Pedro Almodóvar movies.” Vanity fairCamila. The abusive poet, the wren of the back streets, an anarchist saint, a rock and roll queer. Standing tall between being a subject of desire and an object of hatred, Camila Sosa Villada writes in a striking and fairytale-like language about the days when Córdoba inhabited the famous Sarmiento Park.It transforms shame, fear, intolerance, contempt and incomprehension into a magnificent literature as it depicts the park's residents in their most magnificent and heartbreaking nudity. Bad Girls is a sad and brave novel; a tribute to the marginalized, an explosive manifesto and a unique chronicle.QUOTES FROM THE BOOKBut it was as if we had truly bound that silent agreement with blood, for the same mother had given birth to each of us, and we had all drank the same milk... We were the barren, bitter, dry, evil, ruined, lonely, cunning, witch, barren bodies of the earth.*Living in the countryside meant living in heat and anger. The father teaches the art of cruelty, the mother teaches the art of manipulation. *For now, we were Indians dressed in war paint, animals that went out to catch someone by surprise between the teeth of the park at night, we were always angry, we were rude even for compassion, we were unpredictable, we were crazy, we were angry, we were poisonous. *We are not creatures of light, we are animals of darkness, we are animals of shadow, insidious movements and faint echoes, just as our resistance is faint.*We the forgotten have no names anymore. It's like we never existed.*Being happy is also a possibility. Show more

Camila Sosa Villada Editorial Review
The product, titled "Bad Girls," has garnered a positive reception among readers, who appreciate its engaging writing style and social themes. Customers have noted the book's ability to capture attention and maintain a brisk pace, making it an easy read that can be finished in a single day. The narrative resembles the works of renowned author Emile Ajar, suggesting a depth of character and insight that resonates with those familiar with Ajar's style. Although it draws comparisons to a less cheerful Almodovar film, readers describe it as beautifully crafted yet imbued with a sense of melancholy, which adds to its emotional impact. The book is lauded for its interesting content and relatability, appealing to those looking for a poignant social commentary rather than mere entertainment. **
