From 2014 to 2019, she directed "La tribu" (The Tribe), a virtual community dedicated to the dissemination of literature written by women. She has published several books, and was director of the feminist publishing house La Señora Dalloway.

Biography

Carmen G. de la Cueva was born in Alcalá del Río in 1986. She holds a licentiate in journalism and a postgraduate degree in comparative literature, both from the University of Seville. She has carried out academic stays at institutions such as the Technical University of Braunschweig in Germany, the National Autonomous University of Mexico, the Spanish embassy in Prague, and the Instituto Cervantes in London. She has written for national newspapers such as 20 minutos, elDiario.es, El Español, and ABC Cultural. She currently contributes to CTXT on a monthly basis. In addition to her role as a journalist, G. de la Cueva teaches workshops on autobiographical literature and feminism.

In 2014, together with writer Шаблон:Ill and visual artist Martín de Arriba, she created the publishing house La Señora Dalloway – named in homage to Virginia Woolf's novel Mrs Dalloway – which specialized in feminist themes. According to its creators, it was born "at a time when feminisms and all queer currents had not yet found a very clear canonical place within literary and cultural production", and they compared it to "a room of one's own", as described by Woolf. Until its closure in 2019, it published La tribu, Preciosa sangre, Nadie me dijo, and a book of poetry by Eva Strittmatter, with illustrations by Martín de Arriba.

In parallel to the publishing house, in 2014, G. de la Cueva created a virtual community focused on the research and dissemination of feminist literature, which she called "La tribu" (The Tribe). For five years, she contributed to the promotion of feminist literature, cinema, and art in what she called – in clear allusion to Virginia Woolf – her own shared room. In September 2017, she organized her first Feminist Reading Club at the Mujeres y Compañía bookstore in Madrid. After its initial success, in which more than 100 people in an hour were interested in attending, editions of the club were created in other Spanish cities: Bilbao, Barcelona, Valencia, Gijón, Seville, Murcia, and Málaga.

In 2016, G. de la Cueva published her first work, Mamá quiero ser feminista (Mama I Want to be a Feminist). This is an autobiography illustrated by the artist Malota. The writer Elvira Lindo said about it:

In 2017, she organized the First Tribe Feminist Culture Festival, held in collaboration with the Center for Cultural Initiatives of the University of Seville (CICUS). It was an international meeting of feminism in all areas of culture, especially in literature, which brought together professionals from different disciplines, such as Nuria Capdevila-Argüelles, Juana Gallego, Yolanda Domínguez, Шаблон:Ill, Alba González Sanz, Шаблон:Ill, Шаблон:Ill, and Шаблон:Ill. The following year, in June 2018, the festival's second edition was held, featuring professionals such as Шаблон:Ill, Patricia Horrillo, Шаблон:Ill, Laura Freixas, and Шаблон:Ill.

In 2018, G. de la Cueva published Un paseo por la vida de Simone de Beauvoir (A Walk Through the Life of Simone de Beauvoir), a tour of the biography of the feminist philosopher. In 2019, together with María Folguera, she edited Tranquilas: historias para ir solas por la noche (Quiet: Stories to Go Alone at Night), a book of short stories by María Fernanda Ampuero, Nerea Barjola, Aixa de la Cruz, Шаблон:Ill, Roberta Marrero, Lucía Mbomío, Silvia Nanclares, Edurne Portela Camino, Carme Riera, Marta Sanz, Sabina Urraca, and Gabriela Wiener.

In 2023, she published Escritoras. Una historia de amistad y creación (Writers: A Story of Friendship and Creation), with illustrations by the Sevillian artist Ana Jarén. In it, she writes about the literary and vital work of Spanish authors such as Emilia Pardo Bazán, Carmen Martín Gaite, María Lejárraga, Elena Fortún, and Carmen Laforet.

Awards and recognition

In 2018, G. de la Cueva was a finalist for the 7th Colombine International Journalism Award, sponsored by the Шаблон:Ill and organized by the Association of Journalists-Press Association of Almería (AP-APAL), for her article "La impostora. Un cuarto propio para la Biblioteca de Mujeres de Madrid" (The Impostor: A Room of One's Own for the Madrid Women's Library), published in CTXT.
