A passionate believer in equality, she occupied her busy life with action and organisation. While some of her greatest achievements can be seen in her work in helping to establish and lead pioneering women?s organisations, she travelled widely also in the service of political, peace and anti-racism causes. She was a widely respected activist and led an absorbing and very busy life with her political work both in Australia and overseas.

CARLOTA VIVE A LOS ACORDES DE UN TANGO

Es una historia basada en hecho reales y auténticos. Carlota, la protagonista de esta novela, si sus virtudes se convirtieran en defectos, tocaría todos los extremos.

Una persona positiva se cayó, se levantó, se sacudió, se curó los raspones, le sonrió a la vida y dijo : «¡Ahí voy de nuevo!».
