'With this in mind,' she writes, 'I began thinking about producing a book of stories written by Spanish speaking individuals of our community that would give us an insight into the different countries comprising the Latin American and Spanish world, showing them as independent entities' (1). Cabramatta : Fairfield Community Arts Network , 1994 pg. 70-74
