Overview
Si la literatura es una de las herramientas que la sociedad utiliza para construir su identidad, un espejo en el que mirarse y reconocerse, esta propuesta nace de un intento de saber cuál sería la respuesta de la literatura a la pregunta de quiénes somos. El crítico y editor Constantino Bértolo despliega en esta obra su extensa experiencia, su profundo conocimiento de las letras españolas y una capacidad de análisis acerada para ofrecer un recorrido en clave histórico-crítica de la literatura producida durante el siglo XX, ahora que ya ha pasado suficiente tiempo como para volver la mirada hacia él, a través de una selección de cincuenta y cinco obras de autores españoles, escritas en castellano, acompañadas por un breve, lúcido y certero comentario. Por estas páginas transitan desde Azorín y Ramón J. Sender hasta Olvido García Valdés y Luis Magrinyà, pasando por Luisa Carnés, María Zambrano, Juan Eduardo Zúñiga o Rafael Chirbes.
