Can the literary rewriting of painful experiences contest existing interpretations of national trauma? How do women participate in the production of collective narratives of the past in the aftermath of violence? This book discusses the literary representation of women and their memory practices in the recent work of seven contemporary Chilean authors: Diamela Eltit, Carlos Franz, P? Gonz疝ez, F疸ima Sime, Arturo Fontaine, P? Barros, and Nona Fern疣dez. It locates their works in the context of a patriarchal politics of memory in Chile, a country still grappling with the legacy of military dictatorship. Through the analysis of novels that depict the dictatorial past through the memories of women, Gustavo Carvajal argues that these texts explore remembrance as a process by which the patriarchal co-option of women's memories can be exposed and even contested in the aftermath of violence. \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Gustavo Carvajal\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1786838036\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781786838032\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e University of Wales Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 02\/18\/2022\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 240\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.05lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.58h x 5.59w x 0.87d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eReview Citation(s): \u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eChoice\u003c\/i\u003e 12\/01\/2022","brand":"Gustavo Carvajal","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":43982017396991,"sku":"9781786838032","price":76.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_30e69ae0-25e0-4e8f-b418-815d4d703854.jpg?v=1683258807","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/women-memory-and-dictatorship-in-gustavo-carvajal-9781786838032","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
