An artist you love
I am a big fan of Pedro Lemebel. Pedro Lemebel was a chilean writer, social actor and plastic artist. Lemebel’s work is mostly referred to the social marginalization predominant in Chile in dictatorship times. He was a chronicler that talked about the difficulties of being a homosexual with leftist ideologies in a machism country like Chile is. He’s literature had a beautiful and violent composition, speaking from the minorities and sexual liberation that he proclaim in all the aspects of his life. One of my favorite books from Lemebel is Tengo Miedo Torero , a novel that this author published in 2001. The book narrates the difficult love story of a gay couple conform by a poor homosexual men from Santiago de Chile, and a left guerrilla fighter from the Frente Patriotico Manuel Rodriguez , in 1986. Pedro Lemebel died in 2015 at the age of 62, because of a brain tumor. That produce a big shock in me, mostly because I had met Pedro Lemebel a year before of his death, in a boo
