The Disappeared

The Disappeared

Author(s): Gloria Whelan

Location(s): Argentina

Genre(s): Fiction

Era(s): 1970s

Silvia’s brother, Eduardo, has Disappeared, and she won’t stop fighting until she finds him. Norberto, the general’s son, is just foolish enough to help. He’ll fall in love with her, and then he’ll ask his father to set Eduardo free.

At least that’s the premise on which Silvia bases her scheme. In chapters alternating between Silvia’s and Eduardo’s perspectives, acclaimed author Gloria Whelan gives voice to the families who struggled to survive in 1970s Argentina – and to the many who still, today, remain Disappeared.
