After the war, Norah spent one month with her mother Leo Acevedo in a women's prison for uttering cries against the president of Argentina Juan Perón, deepening the aversion that her brother felt for the Argentinian political party Partido Justicialista and its founder Perón. After her release, Norah illustrated her brother's book "Cuaderno San Martin", as she had done with his earlier works like "Luna de enfrente" and "Fervor de Buenos Aires", and "Las invitadas" (1961) and "Autobiografia de Irene" (1962) by Silvina Ocampo.
