BASILE, Teresa. Suspended orphanage: Félix Bruzzone´s narrative. CELEHIS [online]. 2016, n.32, pp.141-169. ISSN 2313-9463.

We analyze certain peculiar traces of the orphan childhood of desaparecidos' HIJOS in the stories of 76 (2008) and in the novel Los Topos (2008) by Féliz Bruzzone. Suspended orphanage is a concept that allows us to examine those traces since the desaparecido impedes the mourning process (prolonged grief) and triggers a pulsion of search and inquiry for the parents' destiny. As regards memory politics and practices within H.I.J.O.S. organization, Bruzzone himself deviates and explore a writing characterized by humor, nonsense, political incorrectness and drift (a drifting realism). His narrative also focuses on the traumatic sequels of the "missing" experience such as parental role disorders and filiation fissures (the broken family); the wander due to home lost, repeated moves and all changes that children had to undergo (the broken home); fear, paranoia, suspicion, silence and uncertainty underwent under State terrorism (paranoid fiction) and the disturbed identity (the broken identity), among other effects that children suffered.

Palabras clave : Literature and memory - HIJOS literature - Second generation - Félix Bruzzone.
