About the Book

Tomboy. Una chica ruda acompaña a una galardonada artista y autora a través de los años de su infancia y adolescencia, y explora, con humor, honestidad e intensidad, lo que significa ser una chica.

Su autora, Liz Prince, ha sido ilustradora para Adventure Time, Steven Universe y Regular Show.

Al crecer, Liz Prince no era una niña muy femenina que digamos, no se ponía tutús rosas ni jugaba a ser una dulce princesa como las demás niñas de su vecindario. Pero tampoco era exactamente uno de los chicos. Era más bien algo en medio. Pero con las presiones de la secundaria, la preparatoria, los papás, la amistad y el romance empujándola hacia todos lados, ese en medio no era precisamente un lugar fácil en el cual estar.

La crìtica ha opinado:

Divertida y cercana mirada a aquello con lo que cada niño tiene que lidiar en cierto punto de su desarrollo, descifrando quién eres verdaderamente por dentro cuando todos los demás sólo ven lo que creen que deberías ser por fuera. -Jeffrey Brown, autor de Clumsy, Jedi Academy y Darth Vader and Son-

ESPECTACULAR. Un libro que hace pensar seriamente a cualquier persona sobre los roles de género predeterminados por la sociedad. -Kirkus Reviews-

Liz Prince retrata la incomodidad y la humillación de la infancia y la adolescencia con una precisión maravillosa (por no decir dolorosa). Todo niño que tome este libro en sus manos estará al tanto de los secretos que la mayoría de nosotros no aprende sino hasta que es demasiado tarde, y cualquier adulto que lo lea traerá a la memoria una verdad esencial: que está muy bien ser exactamente quien queremos ser, no importa cuán raros nos consideren los demás. Tomboy. Una chica ruda no es un libro de autoayuda pero debería serlo. -Julia Wertz, autora de Drinking at the Movies y The Infinite Wait-

Liz Prince manda las normas de género al diablo. Una encantadora memoria que mueve a la reflexión y que no puedes dejar de leer, además de llevar en sí una gran importancia. -Ariel Shrag, autor de Adam y Potential-
ENGLISH DESCRIPTIONGrowing up, Liz Prince wasn't a girly girl, dressing in pink tutus or playing Pretty Pretty princess like the other girls in her neighborhood. But she wasn't exactly one of the guys either, as she quickly learned when her Little League baseball coach exiled her to the outfield instead of letting her take the pitcher's mound. Liz was somewhere in the middle, and Tomboy is the story of her struggle to find the place where she belonged. Tomboy is a graphic novel about refusing gender boundaries, yet unwittingly embracing gender stereotypes at the same time, and realizing later in life that you can be just as much of a girl in jeans and a T-shirt as you can in a pink tutu. A memoir told anecdotally, Tomboy follows author and zine artist Liz Prince through her early childhood into adulthood and explores her ever-evolving struggles and wishes regarding what it means to be a girl. From staunchly refuting anything she perceived as being girly to the point of misogyny, to discovering throughthe punk community that your identity is whatever you make of it, regardless of your gender, Tomboy is as much humorous and honest as it is at points uncomfortable and heartbreaking.
About the Author: Liz Prince es una reconocida artista de cómic desde que iba en preparatoria a mediados de los años 90. Su primer libro, Will You Still Love Me If I Wet the Bed? (2005), fue acreedor del Premio Ignatz por Debut Destacado. Desde entonces ha publicado las colecciones de cómic Delayed Replays y Alone Forever, también autobiográficas. Además ha participado dibujando historietas en la popular serie Hora de aventura. Es colaboradora habitual de la revista Razorcake y asimismo publica sus propios cómics y zines. Actualmente vive en las afueras de Boston con sus dos gatos, Wolfman y Drácula, y sigue siendo una chica ruda a quien se puede ver con frecuencia comprando ropa en la sección de hombres de las tiendas de segunda mano.
