Anacronismo de la Historia. Alan Pauls y sus Historias del llanto, del pelo y del dinero

Abstract

This paper aims to explore and analyze the set of theoretical and formal decisions that Alan Pauls takes to address the problem of the 70 Argentines in his political trilogy: Historia del llanto, Historia del pelo and Historia del dinero. My hypothesis, which arises from the question of the importance of addressing this issue in a context marked by different memorialist narrative policies, is that Pauls' stories make up an anachronistic way of approaching the recent past. An anti-memorialist and anti-denuncialist way that shows the strength of the absent generation. What is involved, with this, is remembering with literature.
