<br/><br/> Translation of: Preso sin nombre, celda sin número. 
<br/><br/> This memoir recounts the harrowing experience of Jacobo Timerman, an Argentine journalist and publisher, who was arrested, tortured, and imprisoned without trial during Argentina’s military dictatorship in the late 1970s.<br/><br/>Timerman provides a vivid and personal account of the brutal conditions he endured—solitary confinement, psychological and physical torture, and the uncertainty of his fate. Beyond his personal ordeal, the book offers a powerful critique of the oppressive regime’s systematic repression, censorship, and human rights abuses during the "Dirty War."<br/><br/>The narrative also explores themes of resilience, the search for justice, and the importance of bearing witness. Timerman’s testimony became a landmark work in exposing state terror in Latin America and remains a vital document for understanding the period’s political and social turmoil.
