«Salvador» is the essay by Joan Didion, published by Kiepenheuer und Witsch in paperback (105 pages, in German).
After a two-week trip to El Salvador in 1982, Didion dissects the terror of the civil war: she visits combat scenes and mass graves, talks with a puppet president, and shows how official language conceals the disappearance of people, connecting that violence to US foreign policy.
Joan Didion's original work was published in 1983; this German edition appeared in 1984. Goodreads classifies it as history, politics, and journalism.
For readers of narrative journalism and political reportage, and for those studying Central American history and the work of Joan Didion.
Joan Didion was an American writer and journalist. She is considered one of the pioneers of New Journalism, along with Gay Talese, Truman Capote, Norman Mailer, Hunter S. Thompson and Tom Wolfe.
