El universo íntimo de Marina Mayoral: Brétema

Abstract

Painting scenarios where to place characters with their stories is one of the most complex tasks in characterizing the space of a literary work. Most authors change space each time they start a new novel. In the case of Marina Mayoral, we found a room of her own, a closed universe that has its well-defined contours. In Mayoral, the central space of each work is directly related to a term: Brétema. In this paper, we will try to draw contours in an amazing world that takes its name in La única libertad (Mayoral 1982) and that links all her works.
