Sumario:In this paper I propose that the anti-detective or postmodern detective fiction that emerges in the Iberian Peninsula and the southern cone of Latin America after the dictatorships belongs to what is known as trauma literature. In the space that I call Iberoamerican Atlantic, the social space of exile, a type of detective fiction emerges that uses postmodern tools with the purpose of dismantling the great dictatorial narrative. In my analysis, I focus on discursive hybridity in Ballad of Dog’s Beach and on parody in Distant Star in order to show how these novels use trauma fiction and postmodern techniques to expose the dictatorship’s open wounds.
