"The Spanish Civil War in the Current Novel” by María Corredera González

“Based on the importance of silence and intergenerational dialogue in the Franco dictatorship and the Spanish transition, five novels by several generations of authors are analyzed –Dulce Chacón, Antonio Soler, Javier Cercas, J. Eduardo Zúñiga and Jorge Semprún–, where the narrative fiction breaks the continuity of the dominant history of the civil war and its consequences, the witness becomes the direct door to the past and the viewer, the transmitter of his memory.”
