"This is a fascinating collection of essays about individual and collective memories in the aftermath of the violence that plagued Peru from 1980 until the mid-1990s. One of the richest collections available on the workings of memory in post-traumatic societies, it illuminates the complex and changing ways in which people recall and represent their experiences with violence, war, human rights violations, silencing, and exclusion."—Carlos Aguirre, author of The Criminals of Lima and Their Worlds: The Prison Experience, 1850–1935

"Cynthia E. Milton's stunning, inter-disciplinary collection illuminates how art intervenes in the memory of politics and the politics of memory in post-civil conflict Peru."—Diana Taylor, author of The Archive and the Repertoire: Performing Cultural Memory in the Americas
