This book explores practices of recollection in contemporary Argentina that helped define the nation's approach to transitional justice in the first decades of the twenty-first century and enhances the critical literature on historical memory and trauma in Latin America by integrating affect theory to cultural representations of state violence.

Silvia R. Tandeciarz is Alfred Ritter Term professor of modern languages and literatures at the College of William and Mary.
