«Nunca me pude imaginar que alguien me ayudaría desde un tiempo tan lejano...». Olvidada durante siglos, opacada por hombres artistas a los que se han atribuido los cuadros debidos en realidad a su genio, Sofonisba Anguissola fue una pintora extraordinaria que, sin formación pictórica ni conocimiento académico de la anatomía, se especializó en el retrato y el autorretrato, alcanzó un gran éxito en su época e, instalada en España, estuvo vinculada a la corte de Felipe II. José María Merino narra en La novela posible la vida de esta pintora con todo el rigor histórico, pero también con toda la amenidad que posibilita la ficción. Y la historia de esta mujer deslumbrante y su tiempo se entrelaza en el libro con otras dos, situadas en la época actual: la del propio escritor que, durante el confinamiento, escribe un diario en el que deja constancia de esos días inciertos y de cómo se inocula en él la semilla de la fascinación por la figura de Sofonisba, y la de una bibliotecaria que encuentra también en la pintora renacentista un rincón donde refugiarse en medio de una ruptura amorosa. En esta novela se mezclan de manera magistral los dos tiempos, el actual y el del Renacimiento, la realidad con la imaginación, la biografía con la autobiografía y la ficción, y la literatura con el arte. ENGLISH DESCRIPTION «I could never have imagined thatsomeone would help me from such a distant time...». Forgotten for centuries, overshadowed by male artists to whom her genius paintings were attributed to, Sofonisba Anguissola was an extraordinary painter who, without pictorial training or academic knowledge of the human anatomy, specialized in portraits and self-portraits; she achieved great success in her time and, while living in Spain, was linked to the court of Philip II. In The Possible Novel, José María Merino narrates the life of this painter with great historical rigor, but also with all the levity that writing fiction can offer. The story of this dazzling woman and her time is intertwined with two others set in current times: that of the writer himself who, during confinement, writes a diary in which he records those uncertain days and how the seed of fascination for Sofonisba is living deep within him; and that of a librarian who finds refuge in the Renaissance painter which helps her overcome a heartbreak. In this novel the two eras are masterfully joined, current times and the Renaissance, reality with imagination, biography with autobiography and fiction, and literature with art.

LA NUEVA NOVELA DE JOSÉ MARÍA MERINO, PREMIO NACIONAL DE LAS LETRAS ESPAÑOLAS 2021 UNA DE LAS NOVELAS DEL VERANO SEGÚN MARIE CLAIRE Un escritor y una bibliotecaria cautivados por una pintora del Siglo de Oro que triunfó en su época para luego ser olvidada «Todo un referente para sucesivas generaciones». Jurado del Premio Nacional de las Letras «Nunca me pude imaginar que alguien me ayudaría desde un tiempo tan lejano...». Olvidada durante siglos, opacada por hombres artistas a los que se han atribuido los cuadros debidos en realidad a su genio, Sofonisba Anguissola fue una pintora extraordinaria que, sin formación pictórica ni conocimiento académico de la anatomía, se especializó en el retrato y el autorretrato, alcanzó un gran éxito en su época e, instalada en España, estuvo vinculada a la corte de Felipe II.

En esta novela se mezclan de manera magistral los dos tiempos, el actual y el del Renacimiento, la realidad con la imaginación, la biografía con la autobiografía y la ficción, y la literatura con el arte. La crítica ha dicho: «Un salto estilístico y experimental». Ana Alejandre, Siglo XXI «[Destacamos] su maestría y excelencia en la creación de literatura fantástica en las modalidades narrativas de novela, novela corta, cuento y microrrelato, así como la inteligencia de sus reflexiones teóricas sobre la ficción. Todo un referente para sucesivas generaciones». Jurado del Premio Nacional de las Letras «Merino mezcla la realidad y la ficción, la biografía con la autobiografía, y la literatura con el arte». Karina Sainz Borgo, Zenda «Una obra polifónica muy amena, que hospeda la mirada reflexiva sobre el mundo de su autor». Santos Sanz Villanueva, El Cultural «Un libro mutante, juguetón». Laura Barrachina, El Ojo Crítico «Merino [arma] un cesto sólido, sin rotos a pesar del reto. Tiene la maestría de quien ha merecido el Premio Nacional de las Letras, y el templede aquel que ha saltado innumerables veces del trampolín encontrando siempre agua en el fondo». María Paredes, The Objective «Maestro del cuento, mago de las palabras, juguetón con los vocablos y defensor del lenguaje como herramienta para vivir más y mejor». Inés Martín Rodrigo, ABC Cultural «Un relato magistral. [...] Una fórmula arriesgada y valiente de abrirse a nuevos derroteros narrativos, con la maestría además de los mejores cultivadores del género». Javier García Recio, La Opinión de Málaga «Uno de los autores actuales capaces de transitar por los distintos géneros literarios con destreza sin par. [...] La tríada ficcional se complementa y unifica de modo admirable en esta novela sobre el pasado y el presente, sobre aspiraciones y desengaños de los seres humanos en cualquier época, sobre felicidad y desgracia, miedos y valentía, sobre pandemia y normalidad».

Publicada por primera vez en 1956, Zama está considerada de manera unánime como una de las grandes novelas del siglo veinte en lengua española. Con una escritura bella y precisa, Antonio Di Benedetto narra la existencia solitaria y suspendida de Don Diego de Zama, un funcionario de la corona española en Asunción del Paraguay que, víctima de una interminable espera, aguarda ser trasladado a Buenos Aires a fines del siglo XVIII. La de Zama no es cualquier espera, se trata de una condición existencial, angustiosa y reflexiva, en un territorio caracterizado por la lejanía, la ajenidad y la disposición para el recuerdo. 'Zama' es la novela de un exiliado castizo, con un lenguaje intemporal y arcaico, por momentos cercano al del Siglo de Oro. Se trata de un libro perfecto, donde la cualidad filosófica se desprende naturalmente de una prosa deslumbrante. "'Zama' es la gran novela americana". J.M. Coetzee "¿Por qué hacer una película de Zama? Porque pocas veces en la vida se puede emprender una excursión irreversible y exquisita entre sonidos e imágenes a un territorio decididamente nuevo." Lucrecia Martel

The twenty-first-century's turn away from fidelity-based adaptations toward more innovative approaches has allowed adapters from Spain, Argentina, and the United States to draw upon Spain's rich body of nineteenth-century classics to address contemporary concerns about gender, sexuality, race, class, disability, celebrity, immigration, identity, social justice, and domestic violence. This book provides a snapshot of visual adaptations in the first two decades of the new millennium, examining how novelistic material from the past has been remediated for today's viewers through film, television, theater, opera, and the graphic novel. Its theoretical approach refines the binary view of adapters as either honoring or opposing their source texts by positing three types of adaptation strategies: salvaging (which preserves old stories by giving them renewed life for modern audiences), utilizing (which draws upon a pre-existing text for an alternative purpose, building upon the story and creating a shift in emphasis without devaluing the source material), and appropriation (which involves a critique of the source text, often with an attempt to dismantle its authority). Special attention is given to how adapters address audiences that are familiar with the source novels, and those that are not. This examination of the vibrant afterlife of classic literature will be of interest to scholars and educators in the fields of adaptation, media, Spanish literature, cultural studies, performance, and the graphic arts.

Though the civil-rights abuses by the Pinochet dictatorship in Chile (1973-1990) were later recognized by reparations and truth commissions, the difficult emotions suffered by the victims and their families were often pushed into the background or out of the national conversation entirely. In response, novelists began writing memory of feelings experienced during the dictatorship into their books. In The Chilean Dictatorship Novel, Weldt-Basson examines fifteen novels and one testimony written on the topic of dictatorship to illustrate how these Chilean narratives center on affect and emotions. Each chapter focuses on a different emotion: feelings of loss because of father abandonment and spatial injustice caused by the neoliberal urbanization of Santiago; despair articulated through tragic romances and affective landscapes; left-wing nostalgia and melancholia communicated through allegory; feelings of abjection caused by torture and betrayal; and the creation of affect through violent events, aggressive child play, and sexual torture. Through a close look at the work of José Donoso, Ariel Dorfman, Diamela Eltit, Carlos Franz, and Nona Fernández, among others, Weldt-Basson effectively argues that by inspiring emotion and creating empathy within readers, the authors of these books instill a drive in the readers for ongoing social-justice advocacy, thereby transforming the process of reading into a platform for future action. Weldt-Basson's landmark study will serve as a basis for the future study of Latin American literature for decades to come.

Born and brought up in Poland bilingually in French and Polish but living for most of his professional life in England and writing in English, Joseph Conrad was, from the start, as much a European writer as he was a British one and his work – from his earliest fictions through Heart of Darkness, Nostromo and The Secret Agent to his later novels– has repeatedly been the focal point of discussions about key issues of the modern age. With chapters written by leading international scholars, this book provides a wide-ranging survey of the reception, translation and publication history of Conrad's works across Europe. Covering reviews and critical discussion, and with some attention to adaptations in other media, these chapters situate Conrad's works in their social and political context. The book also includes bibliographies of key translations in each of the European countries covered and a timeline of Conrad's reception throughout the continent.

«Sólo puedo escribir la única novela posible para mí», afirma Köves, el protagonista perplejo del presente libro. Novela extática, de iniciación, en la que una sutil pátina de humor melancólico recorre de punta a punta una acción que se despliega como un juego de muñecas rusas, nos dibuja un paisaje de tono kafkiano en el que la realidad y la ficción se entrelazan en un personaje que vive, en el plúmbeo y denso ambiente dictatorial del estalinismo, la experiencia de escribir a contracorriente. De una comicidad que se balancea entre lo delirante y lo absurdo, el lector se encontrará con la parte central de la trilogía dedicada a la «ausencia de destino», iniciada con la novela Sin destino (1975) y culminada con Kaddish por el hijo no nacido (1990), ambas publicadas en esta misma editorial.

León Tolstói (1828-1910) es reconocido como uno de los escritores más importantes de la novela rusa y de la literatura mundial. Nacido en una antigua familia de la nobleza, sus obras constituyen un fiel reflejo de la sociedad rusa de la época, convirtiéndolo en uno de los representantes más reconocidos del realismo. En “Anna Karenina” (que empezó a publicarse como un folletín en 1875, y se publicaría por primera vez entera en 1877), Tolstói narra la relación adúltera entre Anna Karenina, casada con un alto funcionario del gobierno, y el conde Vronsky, vínculo a través del cual el escritor retrata la doble moral y los antivalores de un entorno que no sanciona con la misma dureza moral al hombre y a la mujer. Además, muestra la profunda desigualdad social entre la élite y el campesinado, y la búsqueda de la felicidad del ser humano, que alcanza tras una metamorfosis espiritual. La novela ha sido llevada al cine en más de diez adaptaciones, y también sido adaptada a producciones teatrales y ópera.

The Spanish Civil War (1936-1939) pitted conservative forces including the army, the Church, the Falange (fascist party), landowners, and industrial capitalists against the Republic, installed in 1931 and supported by intellectuals, the petite bourgeoisie, many campesinos (farm laborers), and the urban proletariat. Provoking heated passions on both sides, the Civil War soon became an international phenomenon that inspired a number of literary works reflecting the impact of the war on foreign and national writers. While the literature of the period has been the subject of scholarship, women's literary production has not been studied as a body of work in the same way that literature by men has been, and its unique features have not been examined. Addressing this lacuna in literary studies, this volume provides fresh perspectives on well-known women writers, as well as less studied ones, whose works take the Spanish Civil War as a theme. The authors represented in this collection reflect a wide range of political positions. Writers such as Maria Zambrano, Mercè Rodoreda, and Josefina Aldecoa were clearly aligned with the Republic, whereas others, including Mercedes Salisachs and Liberata Masoliver, sympathized with the Nationalists. Most, however, are situated in a more ambiguous political space, although the ethics and character portraits that emerge in their works might suggest Republican sympathies. Taken together, the essays are an important contribution to scholarship on literature inspired by this pivotal point in Spanish history.
