"Todo era campo" is a strange and queer text, and therefore interesting, in which names are erased, skins deceive, and what is always strained and at risk is existence. And there is a curious melancholic tone that contrasts with the virtual presence of its nonexistent author: on social media she is, yes, "the waterer, the cutter, the climber, the ironer, the driver, the blocker, the peeler, the dancer, the shitter, the toaster, or the fucker." But it is that, by not being, she has the whole range of things open to her, as someone who is not and therefore transforms herself, like the Saokian Rosalía who is "all things," and in that non-being, nothing fixed flourishes, adapts, wondering what it would be like to "put a body in a box" and for that sealed body to be, for example, "the body of a mother." [...] And it gives us a very interesting exercise, which has everything to do with the curious intersection between drag and any character, between drag and folklore, between drag and any artist. At its core, it's not so much a book about drag as a text about what happens when we become a person who is no longer ourselves. From the prologue by Elizabeth Duval.
