Un recuerdo puede borrarse a punta de calmantes, ansiolíticos, antidepresivos, somníferos, terapias, exceso de trabajo, mucha vida social y ocupaciones, pero hay cosas que se anclan en la memoria y que permanecen ahí esperando que uno tenga el valor suficiente para bucear en ellas.

"Carefully researched study of the economic impact of the Chilean occupation of Lima during the War of the Pacific. Looks at banking and the roles of emerging Spanish and Chinese merchants. Concludes that the economic 'ruin' of Lima by the end of the occupation was nearly complete.
