Ushuaia, a novel by Alberto Fuguet, follows Leticia Lucero, an Argentine pharmacist living in Maipú, and the disappearance of her twenty-year-old son, Bruno. Told through polyphonic voices, testimonies, press releases, blog entries, and medical documents, the novel assembles a complex puzzle about motherhood as sacrifice, class conflict, and the geographic axis between Maipú and Santiago.

Alberto Fuguet is one of the most influential Chilean storytellers of his generation; Ushuaia marks his first novel with a female protagonist published by Tusquets.
