"At some point in 2021, Hernán Casciari realized that Lizy Tagliani was (in addition to a lot of things) a writer. She was on the radio program Perros de la calle. The two shared that space and Casciari was fascinated by the way Lizy recounted the anecdotes that made up her life. In an intuitive and masterful way, each story had an introduction, conflict and outcome, with the detail that all these stories exhibited the surreal and terrible way in which Lizy had carried out her existence.
Convinced that these narratives could not literally remain in the air, Casciari decided to transfer Lizy's world to paper. For that, together with Josefina Licitra—editor of Orsai and this book—they met with Lizy several times, recorder in hand, and asked her to tell the story of her life from the beginning. The result is this book: an editorial record of the wonderful novel (crazy and coherent, hilarious and dark) that Lizy kept in her head. And today, like an exquisite banquet, it reaches the hands of readers. Let them enjoy it."
Lizy has worked with personalities such as Susana Giménez, Marcelo Tinelli, Santiago del Moro, and Verónica Lozano. She has also appeared as a comedic actress on stage and on television. In a 2018 interview, Tagliani explained that as a trans woman, she could have changed the name and sex listed on her national ID under the 2012 Gender Identity Law, but chose not to.
She has hosted several TV shows including “Trato Hecho”, “El Precio Justo”, and “Minuto para ganar” on Telefe. In 2023, she hosted the fourth edition of the reality show "Got Talent Argentina". She has also co-hosted the radio program “Perros de la calle” on Urbana Play FM alongside Andy Kusnetzoff.
