Sumario:The aim of this article is to analyze the autobiography of ‘Pituca’, a worker born in the north of the province of Córdoba in the early 1930s. That manuscript, dated 1990 and to which we were able to gain access in the context of a series of interviews, provided privileged entrance to issues of great interest for the understanding of an individual trajectory inseparable from the class conditions that made it possible.  Following this premise, this article focuses on three of the central cores that structure it: the representation of her rural origins, the remembrance of a daily life directly linked to domestic service in the city of Córdoba, and the reconstruction of the process of politicization that led to the early identification of this female worker with Peronism. In a transversal way, it attends to the narrative modulations and strategies associated with a style of writing that continually reflects, also, its class markers.
