- Elsa_Osorio abstract "Elsa Osorio was born in the Argentine capital of Buenos Aires in 1952. She studied literature at the university there in order to become a teacher, and has since worked as a writer, journalist, scriptwriter and assistant professor. In 1994 she left Argentina and resettled in Madrid, nowadays she live again in Argentina.At the centre of her literary work lies an examination of contemporary Argentine history. In the process, she turns her attention in particular to the ramifications of politics for the individual, which she illustrates using striking biographies. The »Frankfurter Allgemeine Zeitung« wrote that the author succeeds in »convincing readers that the instruments of the art of story-telling are shown to be most effective at that point at which they lead us back to reality, where our perspective and our interests, whetted by the imagination, are recalled to reality.«In 1982 she debuted with the volume of short stories »Ritos privados« (t: Private rites), for which she was awarded the most prestigious literature prize of her country, the Premio Nacional de Literatura Argentina, in the following year. She later published »Beatriz Guido« (1991), a novel of this Argentine writer's life, and a collection of political and linguistic essays »Las malas lenguas« (1994; t: The wicked tongues).Her sixth novel, »A veinte anos, Luz« (1998; Eng. »My name is Light«, 2003), was greeted with acclaim on the international scene. It won her Amnesty International's literary prize, was translated into more than fifteen languages, and published in twenty-three countries – only in Argentina was she unable to find a publisher at first. The novel deals with a dark chapter of the Argentine military dictatorship. It tells the story of the fate and search for identity of a young woman, born in captivity to opponents of the Junta, who is taken away by the family of an officer who is loyal to the regime.Another prevailing theme in Osorio's work is tango, which she focused on in her screenplay, »La Lección de tango« (1997; t: The tango lesson). Her most recent novel, »Cielo de tango« (2006; t: Tango Sky), also deals with the Argentine dance and merges history and imagination. Like the former work, it unfolds over various temporal planes and tells of two families of differing social backgrounds whose lives are intertwined through tango, beginning with the rise of Argentina in the late eighteenth century and leading up to the present day. The narrative technique of this recent work, which also describes the history of tango, is adopted from the movements of the dance itself: it moves forwards, backwards and sideways, and then changes direction. For this novel she received the Premio de Bibliotecas in Italy and the Premio Acerbi.Among Osorio's further distinctions are an award for best comedy as well as a prize for journalistic satire. She has been living since 2006 once again mostly in Buenos Aires, where she is running creative writing workshops.From 2007 to 2010 she took part in different congresses and fairs, as for example in Saint Malo, "Etonnants Voyageurs", the International Literature Festival in Berlin, the Bookfair in Paris, the Bookfair in the Spanish Gijón, the "Festival de la Palabra" in Puerto Rico, the Bookfair in Medellin and the Bookfair in Frankfurt.In 2009 she spent a month in Berlin under the LiteraturRaum project. In 2009 she published "Callejón con salida" a collection of short stories which received the Premio Roma for foreign literature in 2010.".
