La Chichita is a retired teacher who has been living in Sydney
since the early 1970s. She arrived in Australia from Argentina as a
migrant and since then, she has completed several university
degrees as well as a post-graduate degree. She has worked in the
education sector as a head teacher and at present, aged 73, she is
still working as a teacher and as a professional Spanish
interpreter and translator. She has also travelled extensively.
She has written several substantial pieces of educational materials
in the past, but 'Dirty Laundry' is her first novel.
She was inspired by the works of several Latin American authors who
wrote about magical realism and so experimented with concept. Her
book differs from those as the setting, characters, themes, and
storyline are original and markedly positioned in Australia. The
plot derives from some life experiences coupled with an avid
imagination.
"A great tale of blended characters and imaginings that I had to read it twice to catch the parts I missed first time around due to tears and laughter..! Wonderful! Made me appreciate my family so much more...!" Diana, Indeibook reviewer
