Griselda Gambaro's La Persistencia is one of the Argentine author's most difficult works. In it, she reconstructs a historical event, the school massacre in Beslan, North Ossetia, in 2004, which claimed more than three hundred victims, mostly children. Bringing violence to the stage is not in itself a new fact; it is, however, a matter of recreating an event that really happened in its historical context, trying to expose the reasons that made it possible and the motives that triggered such extreme violence, leaving the judgement to the reader or the spectator.
