Olga Montero Rose in conversation with Álex Pérez

Cartagena 2023, 
We talk about sexual diversity with Olga Montero Rose (Peru) based on her novel Cortejo and her book La rebelión del género: Guía para madres, padres y cuidadores. Montero Rose is a psychoanalyst, member of the Peruvian Psychoanalysis Society and the International Psychoanalytical Association. Her literary debut, Cortejo (2022), tells the story of Simona, a woman in her mid-40s who has just lost her mother, one of the pillars of her life, and who, around this time, meets a woman who makes her question many of the certainties she once held. La rebelión del género, which is our guide at this event, aims to offer information about the changes happening in categories of sex, gender and sexual orientation; things once thought to be natural and irrefutable but which are now being reformulated from top to bottom. In conversation with the teacher Álex Pérez.
