Reviews
"[Gilliland] conveys the complicated, heart-wrenching fullness of her characters' individual stories and shades their backdrop with compulsively readable history of geopolitical tension and the emerging DNA science that fueled the Abuelas' fight. Gilliland's work, exhaustively and compassionately researched, offers a crucial counterbalance to the dark legacy of Argentina's desaparecidos , injecting the light of a model resistance movement that lay the groundwork for future international human rights investigations. Her humility and respect for the fraught journeys her subjects made toward each other and for the vital questions their journeys raised--about power, identity, family, and collective memory and healing--ensure the text will resonate for generations the world over. A piercing, emotional tribute to the value of persistent resistance." -- Kirkus Reviews (starred review), "Journalist Haley Cohen Gilliland immortalizes the heroic resistance of the women who called themselves the Abuelas de Plaza de Mayo. . . . A Flower Traveled in My Blood meticulously chronicles a chapter of humankind at its worst, giving these times their gruesome due, lest they be forgotten and repeated." -- BookPage (starred review), "In this beautifully crafted narrative history, Haley Cohen Gilliland brings to light the stories of Argentinian grandmothers who used every method available, including nascent DNA testing, to locate the children and grandchildren 'disappeared' or even murdered during the dictatorship of the country's military junta. The range of emotions is breathtaking; we learn of the horrors of disappearing, the grunt work of activism, the joys of reunion, and the pain and confusion felt by the disappeared as they try to reconcile their old and new identities. A Flower Traveled in My Blood is the riveting story of a dark history that we must not forget." --Henry Louis Gates, Jr., Alphonse Fletcher University Professor, Harvard University, " A Flower Traveled in My Blood is an unflinching playbook of what happens when a government's tyrannical impulses are fed as well as a heartbreaking, immersive account of what it means to stand up against injustice and demand that those who allow it move out of the way." -- Booklist (starred review), "Deeply reported . . . Gilliland focuses on the ordeal of a single shattered family, widens her lens to include other cases, and embeds her tale in a crisp account of recent Argentinian history. . . . Argentina's lessons for the current moment are multiple: When tyrants threaten, more people and institutions may cower than resist; the loss of checks on state violence can be catastrophic; and no one knows who the next victim will be." -- The Atlantic, "In this beautifully crafted narrative history, Haley Cohen Gilliland brings to light the stories of Argentinian grandmothers who used every method available, including nascent DNA testing, to locate the children and grandchildren 'disappeared' or even murdered during the dictatorship of the country's military junta. The range of emotions is breathtaking; we learn of the horrors of disappearing, the grunt work of activism, the joys of reunion, and the pain and confusion felt by the disappeared as they try to reconcile their old and new identities. A Flower Traveled in My Blood is the riveting story of a dark history that we must not forget." --Henry Louis Gates, Jr., New York Times bestselling author, "Enthralling . . . Written with the nail-biting verve of a thriller, this spotlights relentless perseverance in the face of unthinkable brutality." -- Publishers Weekly (starred review)
Synopsis
"Inspiring...A triumphant saga of ordinary people doing extraordinary things in the face of pure malevolence." --Hampton Sides - "Enthralling...Written with the nail-biting verve of a thriller." -- Publishers Weekly (starred review) - "Extraordinary...A harrowing and timely reminder of what happens when democracy succumbs to despotism." --Adam Higginbotham - "A heartbreaking and humane story of devotion and moral courage." --Robert Kolker - "Piercing, emotional...Will resonate for generations." -- Kirkus Reviews (starred review) A remarkable new talent in narrative nonfiction delivers the epic true story of a group of courageous grandmothers who fought to find their grandchildren who were stolen. In the early hours of March 24, 1976, the streets of Buenos Aires rumble with tanks as soldiers seize the presidential palace and topple Argentina's leader. The country is now under the control of a military junta, with army chief Jorge Rafael Videla at the helm. With quiet support from the United States and tacit approval from much of Argentina's people, who are tired of constant bombings and gunfights, the junta swiftly launches the National Reorganization Process or El Proceso --a bland name masking their ruthless campaign to crush the political left and instill the country with "Western, Christian" values. The junta holds power until 1983 and decimates a generation. One of the military's most diabolical acts is kidnapping hundreds of pregnant women. After giving birth in captivity, the women are "disappeared," and their babies secretly given to other families--many of them headed by police or military officers. For mothers of pregnant daughters and daughters-in-law, the source of their grief is twofold--the disappearances of their children, and the theft of their grandchildren. A group of fierce grandmothers forms the Abuelas de Plaza de Mayo, dedicated to finding the stolen infants and seeking justice from a nation that betrayed them. At a time when speaking out could mean death, the Abuelas confront military officers and launch protests to reach international diplomats and journalists. They become detectives, adopting disguises to observe suspected grandchildren, and even work alongside a renowned American scientist to pioneer groundbreaking genetic tests. A Flower Traveled in My Blood is the rarest of nonfiction that reads like a novel and puts your heart in your throat. It is the product of years of extensive archival research and meticulous, original reporting. It marks the arrival of a blazing new talent in narrative journalism. In these pages, a regime tries to terrorize a country, but love prevails. The grandmothers' stunning stories reveal new truths about memory, identity, and family., "[An] astonishing story...Powerful...Harrowing...Absorbing and lucid...You would have to harden your heart to be unmoved by the Abuelas' quest." --Jennifer Szalai, The New York Times "Inspiring...A triumphant saga of ordinary people doing extraordinary things in the face of pure malevolence." --Hampton Sides * "Enthralling...Written with the nail-biting verve of a thriller." -- Publishers Weekly (starred review) * "Extraordinary...A harrowing and timely reminder of what happens when democracy succumbs to despotism." --Adam Higginbotham * "A heartbreaking and humane story of devotion and moral courage." --Robert Kolker * "Piercing, emotional...Will resonate for generations." -- Kirkus Reviews (starred review) A remarkable new talent in narrative nonfiction delivers the epic true story of a group of courageous grandmothers who fought to find their grandchildren who were stolen.
