DEFIANCE & DETERMINATION: TRUE-LIFE TALES – NONFICTION/NO FICCIÓN
Haley Cohen Gilliland’s A Flower Traveled in My Blood: The Incredible True Story of the Grandmothers Who Fought to Find a Stolen Generation of Children tells the stunning tale of the kidnapping of hundreds of pregnant women by Argentina’s military junta in 1976. A group of fierce, grief-stricken grandmothers known as the “Abuelas de Plaza de Mayo” rose up against these crimes, defying terror to find their missing loved ones. In Miriam Lewin’s Iosi, the Remorseful Spy, co-authored with Horacio Lutzky, a young Argentine intelligence agent poses as a Jew to investigate the fabricated “Andinia Plan.” Instead, he finds love, community – and terror. This true-crime tale of espionage, antisemitism, and betrayal reveals a story still unresolved today. Moderated by author Saúl Sosnowski. Con traducción simultánea al español.
