Holly Mays Holly Mays Haunting “…for better or worse, you’re through.” —Susan Johnson Come endure the house of horrors! Thunder, it’s storming now and Spend a night inside its drafty windows. The basement is probably flooding. Legend has it no one lives to witness dawn. That tree sure is swaying a lot Do you dare try to win the overnight prize? It would be a shame if it fell on your entire family. Do not look into mirrors, You’ll hear a low growl down the hall For, you will see ghoulish figures Coming from that room, you know the one. None so terrifying as what will replace Yellow glowing eyes are peering out What should be your own familiar face Climate changing, early budding. Instead, you will see there is a zit Skeletons, vampires, spiders, rats Or worse a weak-ass eyebrow game. Secrets, politicians, aging, getting fat. Why, oh why didn’t you pack some dry Moaning, groaning, chains that clatter Shampoo? No response, runny nose, runny cake batter. Cobwebs. So many cobwebs hang What happens if my cat dies? In the corners. In the dark. And the ground is frozen and I can’t bury her? Something moves them, a breath What if my husband meets a prettier, younger- A clown, a psychopath, a monster, That thing’s probably cancer; it’s for sure, definitely cancer! A rapidly approaching due date for which you are entirely unprepared! Do not fear, you have a choice Run away free or stay and get eaten. Footsteps now, that belong to a man with a gun Nobody said it was an easy choice, Approaching your child’s classroom. Either way, you will not see the light of day It’s happening right now and you are not there to stop it. From inside this house. What kind of mother are you? Relax. It’s not real! Have a nice harmless coffee. A hot pumpkin spice latte, perhaps. But whatever you do, don’t dare let them see How basic you are. You do NOT want to be basic. 4 5 Josue Contreras Josue Contreras The Worst Year of My Life You couldn’t tell me no -then I would become the Incredible Hulk.

    UNIVERSITY OF CALIFORNIA Los Angeles Representations of Transnational Violence: Children in Contemporary Latin American Film, Literature, and Drawings A dissertation submitted in partial satisfaction of the requirements for the degree Doctor of Philosophy in Hispanic Languages and Literatures by Cheri Marie Robinson 2017 © Copyright by Cheri Marie Robinson 2017 ABSTRACT OF THE DISSERTATION Representations of Transnational Violence: Children in Contemporary Latin American Film, Literature, and Drawings by Cheri Marie Robinson Doctor of Philosophy in Hispanic Languages and Literatures University of California, Los Angeles, 2017 Professor Adriana J. Bergero, Chair In this study, I examine representational strategies revolving around extreme violence and child/adolescent protagonists in films, literature, children’s drawings, and legal/political discourses in contemporary Latin American culture from an interdisciplinary approach. I analyze the mobilizing potential and uses of representations of child protagonists affected by violence and the cultures of impunity that facilitate its circulation. Within the works selected, I explore ways in which children can become sites of memory and justice through acts of witnessing, empathy, and the universal claim of natural law, with a primary focus on transnational and multidirectional depictions of violence (i.e. a violence in circulation) in extra-juridical, politicized, or aberrant environments in Latin American works. The historical periods contextualizing this study include the Argentine military dictatorship (1976-1983) and its interconnectedness to the violence of WWII and the Holocaust in Reina Roffé’s “La noche en blanco” (Chapter 1), the impact of ii transnational trajectories of genocidal violence in Argentine South Patagonia in 1959-1960 as depicted by Lucía Puenzo’s novel Wakolda (Chapter 2), Argentina’s transition to democracy (1990s) and the critical questions it raised regarding appropriated children and amnesty/justice in Dir.
