TRANSgressive Lives
TRANSgressive Lives talks about the lives of people that faced the challenge of being faithful to themselves, defying the norms imposed by society.
They are more than biographies: they are confessions of souls that looked for their place in the world against the difficulties. The book invites reflection on identity, love and the fight for acceptance. In each story, we find echoes of our own battles, reminding us that, no matter how much time passes, the yearning to be understood and loved is universal. Let yourself be taken by TRANSgressive Lives and find inspiration to live your truth bravely.

With such a diverse career, Ana continues to leave her mark on the literary world, demonstrating that her passion and talent know no bounds.
Anna Solà
Born in Mataró, she discovered her passion for illustration at a very early age. This passion led her to study design and illustration, and later she opted for digital illustration. Throughout her career she has illustrated several cartoons in the magazine Estris, and has collaborated in different social books such as: Un salto en el recuerdo (2019), a book in solidarity against Alzheimer's and No m'oblidis (2021), published by the Fundación Alzheimer Cataluña.
She has won awards such as the alternative poster for Les Santes de Mataró, second prize in the illustrated micro-story competition of the University of Jaén in 2021 and was a finalist in the same competition a year later. In addition to her illustrated work, Anna also creates works on paper. Her most inspired project is Feéricas de papel.
