Searching for Memory is a singular contribution to literature on dictatorship, memory, and oral history. It does more than just recount Palmar's life story. It is also a story about stories: how Palmar has told his own life history, why he has transformed his most traumatic memories into a public narrative, and the meanings of memory in the shadow of dictatorship.
