Synopsis
Imagining Argentina is an award-winning novel by Lawrence Thornton, about the Dirty War in 1970s Buenos Aires, Argentina, where the military government is abducting those opposed to its rule. Cecilia, a dissident journalist, is kidnapped by the secret police to join the ranks of the 'disappeared', as her husband Carlos, a theater director, searches frantically for her and others through "imagining" their fates in prisons and cells. In 2003, the novel was adapted to film by Christopher Hampton.
