Prisoner Without a Name, Cell Without a Number (Spanish: Preso Sin Nombre, Celda Sin Numero) is a 1981 memoir by the left-wing Argentine journalist and publisher Jacobo Timerman, who was imprisoned without due-process during the Dirty War in Argentina in April 1977 and subsequently tortured. Though acquitted by a military court in October 1977, Timerman was kept under house arrest after his release in April 1978 until his deportation to Israel in September 1979.
