Overview

Letting Go is a series of interconnected stories based on the author's experiences as a naval officer in Argentina. It is also an invitation to contemplate the possibility of a peaceful solution for the conflict over the Falklands-Malvinas islands. Moreover, it is an effort to portray the ""Malvinas experience"" from different points of view and to register the attitude of some of its participants. The book adroitly conveys the atmosphere of relative isolation, confusion and hope that coloured the violent and chaotic life of Argentines during the 1970s and 1980s and offers an insight into the close connections that can be drawn between the country's struggle against terrorism and the war for the Malvinas-Falklands. First published in Buenos Aires in 2010, the book was hailed by Rosendo Fraga, a leading political commentator, as ""picturing Argentina with its drama, its decline and its recent conflicts [...] written with agility, swiftness and intensity"".
