“Her dad’s favorite painting, an early Claudio Aristeguieta, occupied the room’s back wall. To Nina, it looked like wet sand, but she knew that it reminded her father of the happier years of his adolescence, the fervent Communist stage he still saw, more than forty years later, as the life he should have kept living. She wished she could give him a tour of the life he had now. Show him, as if he were an outsider, how good it was, how enjoyable his existence could be.”
Lily Meyer, Short War

“Her father hesitated. “No parent wants their child to think of them as a failure.” “You think you’re a failure?” “I know.” Nina screwed her eyes shut. Sorrow flooded through her. She heard the list her dad wasn’t reciting: failed Communist, failed activist, failed lover, failed protector, failed parent, failed friend. Nico always said her dad believed he should have been able to save Andrés somehow. Maybe he’d never actually—or never only—been talking about Andrés.”
Lily Meyer, Short War

“I resent that Nina holds herself accountable for my birth mother’s fate. Her logic offends me. If she, as Ray Lazris’s granddaughter and as an American taxpayer, is guilty of the atrocities committed by Augusto Pinochet and his CIA-backed regime, then so am I. Her concept of historical responsibility would have me shoulder the blame for my mother’s suffering, or else identify myself strongly enough with that mother and that suffering to become a victim of harm perpetrated against a body that is not mine. I”
Lily Meyer, Short War
