"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."
