This article discusses three recent narrative productions related to the construction of social memories in Peru: the texts Memorias de un soldado desconocido (2012) by Lurgio Gavilán Sánchez and Los rendidos (2015) by José Carlos Agüero, and the documentary Tempestad en los Andes (2014) by Mikael Wiström. The problem that binds them is the lack of justice and reparation after the internal armed conflict between Shining Path and the State, specifically with respect to symbolic violence. While these narratives have as one of their focal points the representation of this problem, the article explores if these narratives can also offer an opportunity for reparation. The notions of “affection” and “restorative justice” theoretically support the inquiry.
