Daniel Loedel’s stirring debut, HADES, ARGENTINA, continues to accumulate great coverage in the week following its publication, including a glowing review from The Economist. Loedel published an original essay in The Atlantic about his half-sister, Isabel, who was “disappeared” during Argentina’s Dirty War before Loedel was born, and who served as inspiration for his novel. Loedel was also featured in Poets & Writers’s “Writers Recommend” column, and he sat down for interviews with the Debutiful podcast and Interview Magazine. Loedel told Interview’s Christopher Bollen: “That feeling of being haunted by someone’s absence was one that I knew well and tapped into it in order to write this story. So the idea was really less a structural decision than a means of accessing what is emotionally true about living in the aftermath of a disappeared loved one.” Riverhead Books published the novel on January 12, 2021.
