Description
Seventy-seven is a haunting novel about life under a dictatorship. In 1977 Buenos Aires, Gómez's world begins to unravel as friends and students disappear one by one. His own safety becomes increasingly precarious when he takes in two dissidents, putting his life at risk. As the situation spirals out of control, Gómez's life becomes a paranoid nightmare. His search for anonymity is futile, and even his nightly escapades cannot relieve the tension. The novel builds towards a shocking climax, but its true power lies in its evocative portrayal of absence and the clash between morality and survival. Told mostly in flashbacks thirty years later, this richly detailed novel weaves together elements of the occult with a gripping narrative that will keep you on the edge of your seat.
