Racimo. De los crímenes locales a los crímenes de la globalización

The novel  Racimo  (2014) by Diego Zuniga is an ingenious assemble of local and global violence that traces a subtle relation between tragic events in different geographies and temporalities.  Racimo effectively evokes the traumatic past from a unique perspective that attempts to link the 1973  Copu d´etat  with the terrorist attacks in New York in 2001.  Local memory therefore is questioned from a global perspective. In other words, the novel suggests the need to exanimate the Chilean September 11 through its connection with the 9/11.
