It is 1983. The Military Junta in Argentina which presided over one of the more insidious reigns of terror in recent history and caused what was virtually a civil war, is on the verge of collapse. The South Atlantic Conflict with Britain, known as the Falklands War, has ended in bitter defeat. But although the tumult and the shouting have largely died, the quiet agony of much of the populace has not. Invisible presences stalk the streets. Fear and grief smoulder behind closed doors. Despite rumour of an imminent return to democarcy, people are afraid to trust. It is into this transitional and morally ambiguous state of affairs that the somewhat naive Canadian, Claire Linden, steps when she arrives in Buenos Aires to visit Esme, a childhood friend, and her Argentine husband, Diego Armada. With them Claire finds herself drawn into a disturbing though seductive new reality where she is forced to confront human duality up close. As the country staggers towards recovery and reconciliation, so the characters seek pathways to redemption. Paperback, Edition: First Edition, Label: Brock House Writers, Brock House Writers, Product group: Book, Published: 2006, Studio: Brock House Writers.
