Testimonies confirmed that Simón had been one of the thousands of victims of Argentina's military regime, executed for being a 'subversive'; yet this man is identical to the man she lost three decades ago. While skirting around the mystery, Eloy Martínez masterfully peels away layer upon layer of history - both personal and political. And just as Simón's disappearance comes to represent the thousands of disappearances that were such a common occurrence during the dictatorship, so Emilia's refusal to accept his death mirrors the country's unwillingness to face its reality.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e  The final work of the late Martínez, \u003ci\u003ePurgatory\u003c\/i\u003e is his most moving, most autobiographical novel.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Bloomsbury Publishing PLC","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":32051972800595,"sku":"9781408822029","price":15.99,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0278\/1295\/4195\/files\/9781408822029.jpg?v=1765025145","url":"https:\/\/agendabookshop.com\/products\/purgatory-6","provider":"Agenda Bookshop","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
