Reviews
Through the lens of geographical space (interior, exterior, urban, domestic, visual--physical places as well as the worlds of dream, fantasy, and memory), Ester Bautista Botello studies Carmen Mart n Gaite's ample production in order to discern a poetics of space in her work, what Mart n Gaite might see as 'the journey as the centre of all storytelling.' She draws not only from the author's narrative fictions, but also from her musings on the process of writing (articles, lectures, and collections). Well documented and thoughtfully constructed, this book offers a new way for readers of one of Spain's foremost twentieth-century writers to approach (or discover) her important work. --David T.
