Each of the men thought they knew Leticia very well. To each of them she lied about who she was, as well as about who and what her father was.
Her name is Leticia the Chicken. She can make up stories so skillfully that it is impossible not to believe. And she is ready to tell you seven almost true tales about her father: a colonel from the 17th century, a ghost of the past, a stove-maker, a forester, a duck on a village pond and a hero of a modern war... But in the end - who is he? And does he really exist?
In a world where war has become commonplace, Leticia is waging her own fight against the most terrible demon - loneliness. And each time, intertwining reality and fiction, she becomes one step closer to the truth. Because isn't it the only weapon against what destroys us?
"Letizia the Chicken and All Her Fictional Lovers She Lied to About Her Father" is a mix of humor, sarcasm, poetic allusions, magical realism, and autobiographical history with elements of reportage. And an attempt to describe vulnerability in a world where war becomes commonplace and love is a saving illusion.
