Book Synopsis
Siete relatos sobre el sometimiento social, familiar o económico de la vida cotidiana, escritos por Carmen Martín Gaite, una de las figuras más importantes de las letras hispánicas del siglo XX. «Las verdaderas ataduras son las que uno escoge, las que se busca y se pone uno solo, pudiendo no tenerlas». Además de la narración principal, que da título a la obra, el libro homónimo de Carmen Martín Gaite incluye otros seis relatos que exploran los conflictos de identidad, así como las complejidades de las relaciones humanas; especialmente desde la perspectiva de las mujeres en la España de mediados del siglo XX. Estos cuentos ofrecen una visiónprofunda y psicológica de los vínculos emocionales y sociales, vistos a través de la capacidad narrativa de la autora para "bucear en el interior de sus personajes femeninos" para explorar temas como la libertad, la identidad y la incomunicación. ENGLISH DESCRIPTION Seven stories about social, family, and financial submission in everyday life, written by Carmen Martín Gaite, one of the most important figures in Spanish literature in the twentieth century. "The real ties are the ones you choose, the ones you seek, and the ones you put on yourself, which you could have not." Besides the primary story that gives this work its name, Carmen Martín Gaite's book of the same name includes six other tales that explore conflicts of identity, as well as complexities in human relations, specially from a female perspective in mid-twentieth-century Spain. These short stories offer a deep and psychological perspective of emotional and social ties, seen through the author's narrative mastery to "dive into her female characters" and explore topics like freedom, identity, and isolation.About the Author
