CHA-CHA-CHA

Guaranteed to lift your spirits, as working on it did mine, this 400+-page book tells the story of the chachachá, illustrated with more than 800 record covers from the era, all from the Gladys Palmera Collection of Cuban and Afro-Latin music, which bear witness to the seemingly infinite ways that three little words can be combined to spell out the onomatopoeic name one of the world's most infectious rhythms.

I worked as a translator and English-language editor on the book, which will be available in both Spanish and English editions. Order from the Gladys Palmera site or soon from Amazon. https://gladyspalmera.com/producto/cha-cha-cha/
