This week my guest is Rebecca J. Sanford, author of The Disappeared, a dazzling historical tale of one woman’s fight for survival, a grandmother’s search for her child and grandchild, and an adoptee’s journey of self-discovery.
Seamlessly moving from 1970s Buenos Aires (at the heart of the Dirty War) to early 2000s New York, Rebecca creates a delicate portrait of the consequences of war and the power of women’s resistance.
“Written in spare yet wonderfully evocative prose, The Disappeared captures the brutal realities of a shared buried history, one that we can now never afford to forget. Rebecca J. Sanford is a gifted novelist, and I highly recommend this deeply compelling and important book.”
— “Andre Dubus III, New York Times bestselling author of House of Sand and Fog”
