Synopsis "South 1982"

1982: Argentina is in crisis. In the face of protests, the military junta calls a generation to arms in the hope that patriotic feeling, and a quick and easy war, will restore national unity. Adrián N. Bravi recounts the battle for the Malvinas Islands through the story of Alberto Adorno, a young soldier for whom the tragedy of an absurd conflict turns into comedy. South 1982 portrays the feelings of someone waiting to leave the army, of someone not long recruited who is about to return home but feels he is still at war, who wanders around the camp with a book of poetry in his pocket. Bravi narrates the events of one war, which is the story of every war, through the ironic voice of a modern Soldier Svejk. "With the skill of a spider, Bravi weaves stories that seem transparent, of agreeable humour, into which readers fall like flies, discovering that, at the centre of the plot, there's a fierce, formidable writer." Alberto Manguel
