Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Absent the Archive is the first cultural history devoted to literary and visual representations of the police massacre of peaceful Algerian protesters. This corpus, or anarchive, includes a variety of cultural texts whose formal, diegetic, and discursive strategies represent the massacre and its erasure, its “becoming invisible,” and its afterlives as a trace, a memory, a sign.
