Sumario:Going through several decades, “Now that Titi is gone” articulates complex temporalities related to the protagonist’s life, her family and Argentine history. In the 60s, it presents the childhood of the woman mentioned in the title ”“ and several times named in the short story ”“ and her sister who is the narrator we don’t get to know the name. Thereafter, the youth of these sisters is portrayed during the most brutal period of the Argentine military dictatorship. Finally, the bewildering discovery of adulthood is narrated in a context where many of the characters are gone, but their ghosts insist on being present.
