dbpedia-owl:abstract
Achy Obejas (La Habana, 1956), es una periodista, poeta, traductora y narradora cubano-estadounidense. Obejas pertenece a la generación de niños cubanos que abandonaron la isla con sus padres rumbo a Estados Unidos poco después del triunfo de la Revolución Cubana. La biculturalidad, no solo vinculada a Cuba, sino al universo latino en general en Estados Unidos está muy presente en sus textos.​ Otro referente constante en su narrativa es el tema homoerótico, que aborda desde posiciones de militancia activa, con una actitud desenfadada, agresiva y que rompe convencionalismos.​ ​ Si bien sus primeros textos narrativos aparecieron en inglés, Achy Obejas ha comenzado luego a escribir también en español y ha visto traducida su obra a este idioma. Tras regresar por primera vez a Cuba en 1995, ha mantenido estrechos vínculos con la comunidad intelectaul cubana y, desde el anonimato, apoyó económicamente durante diez años las ediciones del concurso de cuento que convoca la revista .​ Poemas y relato suyos han aparecido en Prairie Schooner, Fifth Wednesday Journal, TriQuarterly, Another Chicago Magazine y otras publicaciones estadounidenses, así como en .
