Children of the Desaparecidos in the Contemporary Argentine Prose and the Debate on Memory
The term desaparecidos refers to the people who disappeared with no traces between 1976‑1983 when the military junta took over the power in Argentina. Its functionaries fought all political adversaries with no mercy. The democratic Argentina has had to face its own tragic history, punish the criminal government and, if possible, repair harm made to its victims. At the same time, the debate on the tragic past has begun. Children of the desaparecidos, adult nowadays, try to find out the truth about their parents’ fate and, at the same time, to construct their own identity. The article focuses on the stories of the children of the desaparecidos reflected in the contemporary Argentine short novels. Two of them are taken into account: Ni muerto has perdido tu nombre by Luis Gusmán and Los topos by Félix Bruzzone. Both authors present two young men who lost their parents soon after the birth and their effort to confront traumas of the past and their consequences.
