Overview

Reconstruye, en un ejercicio prodigioso de encarnación de la historia de un país en los destinos de una familia, los episodios fundacionales de una saga ya presente en Desmoronamiento o Donde no estén ustedes.

Cuando, en 1944, el periodista Pericles Aragón, crítico mordaz con el gobierno del dictador salvadoreño Maximiliano Hernández Martínez, es encarcelado, su mujer, Haydée, decide abrazar la práctica de escribir llevando un diario de los acontecimientos. Mientras descubre horrorizada los entresijos políticos de un país abocado al conflicto, Haydée describe el aumento de las detenciones, la prohibición de las visitas a los reclusos, las vicisitudes del golpe de Estado, y nos habla del entorno familiar y social de su matrimonio: las diferencias políticas entre su padre y el de Pericles y los destinos de sus tres hijos. De ellos, es Clemen Aragón, el más disoluto y una de las caras visibles del golpe de Estado, quien se verá abocado, junto a su primo militar, a escapar del país.
 
Tirana memoria es otro capítulo fundamental de la saga de la familia Aragón en la que Horacio Castellanos Moya entreteje magistralmente el derrocamiento de la dictadura salvadoreña con el devenir de una estirpe de hacendados y militares para quienes el destino de la patria es una cuestión de familia.

ENGLISH DESCRIPTION

Castellanos Moya’s most thrilling book to date, about the senselessness of tyranny.

The tyrant of Horacio Castellanos Moya’s ambitious new novel is the actual pro-Nazi mystic Maximiliano Hernández Martínez — known as the Warlock — who came to power in El Salvador in 1932. An attempted coup in April, 1944, failed, but a general strike in May finally forced him out of office. Tyrant Memory takes place during the month between the coup and the strike. Its protagonist, Haydée Aragon, is a well-off woman, whose husband is a political prisoner and whose son, Clemente, after prematurely announcing the dictator’s death over national radio during the failed coup, is forced to flee when the very much alive Warlock starts to ruthlessly hunt down his enemies. The novel moves between Haydée political awakening in diary entries and Clemente’s frantic and often hysterically comic efforts to escape capture. Tyrant Memory — sharp, grotesque, moving, and often hilariously funny — is an unforgettable incarnation of a country’s history in the destiny of one family.
