Eduardo Mendicutti
Eduardo Mendicutti (born March 24, 1948 in Sanlúcar de Barrameda , Spain ) is a Spanish writer and journalist .
Mendicutti was born in 1948 in Sanlúcar de Barrameda, Andalusia. In 1972 he moved to Madrid, where he trained as a journalist. Less than a year later, his first novel Tatuaje won the Premio Sésamo, but it was banned by the censors and remained unpublished. Significant for his works are, like him, homosexual characters. Mendicutti writes columns for the conservative Spanish newspaper El Mundo and then for the Spanish gay magazine Zero ( no longer published).
