Hi everyone. My name is Mirta Ines Trupp. My book is entitled With Love, The Argentina Family-Memories of Tango & Kugel; Mate with Knishes.

I was motivated to write down my unique story largely in part to leave something behind for my children and their (future)families. I love history and genealogy; romance and adventure. I think my book is a great mix of these things...a little bit "My Big Fat Greek Wedding" mixed with "Are you there God? It's me, Margaret" and a dash of "I Remember Mama."

This is a story of a girl trying to connect to her Jewish faith while coming to terms with her Argentine culture and her Russian heritage. Traveling back and forth between two continents and wearing out five passports before twenty-two, provided the fodder for the basis of the story. By today's standards, this is a G-rated book.
