En esa época

Synopsis of En esa época

In this fascinating novel, Sergio Bizzio revisits a crucial moment in 19th-century Argentine history: the construction of the Alsina trench and the conflicts between the state and indigenous peoples. Through a narrative that blends history with implausible and parodic elements, the work explores the experiences of colonels, soldiers, and tribal leaders, all altered by the presence of two strange, ancient children who defy the logic of the era. The work stands out for its ability to question the identity narrative of the Argentine state, moving away from official discourses to delve into the cracks of history.
