Rubén Antón: «Part of Our LGTBIQ+ Memory Has Been Erased»

Rubén Antón is very important in LGTBIQ+ culture. She is an artist, creator and cultural advocate. She is also known as a travesti archaeologist. Now she surprises everyone with her first novel.

Rubén has worked for years preserving LGTBIQ+ memory. According to her, important parts have been erased. Many stories of LGTBIQ+ people have simply disappeared. Nobody has told or saved them.

Her work seeks to recover those lost stories. Rubén researches travesti culture as historical expression. She believes these forms are part of cultural heritage. However, they have been ignored or destroyed for long.

Rubén Antón's debut novel arrives in this context. The work explores identity, memory and resistance themes. It connects past and present LGTBIQ+ experiences. Rubén wants readers to understand our origins.

For Rubén, knowing your own history is very important. LGTBIQ+ people need historical references and role models. Without memory, building solid identity is difficult. Her advocacy work is therefore essential.

Rubén published her novel with great enthusiasm. She hopes it reaches young LGTBIQ+ people. She also wants to reach general audiences. The community's story must be known.

Shangay magazine highlighted this publication as important cultural event. Rubén Antón represents a new generation of LGTBIQ+ creators. Her voice combines activism with art and research. She is fundamental in Spanish queer culture.

Her message is clear and direct. Memory cannot keep being erased. We all must preserve and transmit it. Rubén Antón's novel is one important step forward.
