| Miêu tả: | The inclusion within Néstor Ponce’s Toda la ceguera del mundo (2014) of drug trafficking and its associated chains of command and narcotics trading identifies the work clearly as a narconovela, one of the most popular contemporary noir sub-genres in Latin America. Within the fiction, as crimes and post-mortem mutilations spiral out of control, so, too, do the violent turf wars and reckonings. With Argentina’s early twentieth-century financial crash—the so-called “Corralito”—as the backdrop, Inspector Barrionuevo and his journalist sidekick Rébora must carry out their investigation. New drug trafficking routes, and the expansion of narcotics markets, lead to a parallel growth in drug-related businesses and distribution networks—what I will call a drift in displacements. This drift in drug-related displacements—characterized by impunity, corruption, and vicious revenge—cause immeasurable human disasters that in turn prompt the social tissue to rot and decay. |
