This article highlights one of the recent cartoon productions. It is Improlijas memorias, debut novel by Argentinean researcher Carmen Perilli, which ranges from the last Argentine dictatorship (1976-1983) to the recent inquiries against the executioners of that time. Memory is the key to denouncing the oppressive environment experienced and the consequent state of fear and uncertainty of the population. The narrative presents facts and court documents about the dead and missing people, as well as being carried away by memories, through which it shows the impacts of the “guerra sucia” on the author herself. Alongside this, Carmen Perilli builds a fragmented, hybrid and particular narrative. It is argued, in this article, that the construction of this writing contributes to the elaboration of an emblematic memory about the traumatic events, as well as the way of producing the text, cartonería, enhances a voice of resistance against
authoritarianism of any kind.
