About This Book

For more than ten years, Dolores Masson has joined the women who march each Thursday in Buenos Aires' Plaza de Mayo in memory of los desaparecidos--the countless men, women, and children who vanished without a trace at the hands of the generals during Argentina's Dirty War. She has nearly moved past hope when, through the psychic vision of Teresa Rueda, she locates the whereabouts of her two grandsons who disappeared when they were infants. When Dolores reclaims the boys, now teenagers who have no memory of her or their birth parents, she sets off a battle for custody and devotion with the general who arranged the abduction and the only parents the boys have ever known.

As she is forced to come to terms with the enduring consequences of Argentina's most shameful hour, Dolores begins to make peace with the unbearable memories that live within her, in her blue archives. Universal and timeless in its emotional complexity and impact, Tales From the Blue Archives presents one of our most talented authors at the height of his formidable powers.
