Miramientos

Synopsis of Miramientos

In 'Miramientos', Javier Marías presents a series of brief and personal portraits of prominent Spanish-language writers. This work serves as a necessary companion to his book 'Vidas escritas', where the author explored international literary figures, and here he turns his gaze toward authors such as Borges, García Lorca, Neruda, and many others, including a revealing final self-portrait. With his characteristic precise and reflective prose, Marías analyzes not only the trajectory of these great names in literature but also the essence of their craft. It is an essential volume for literature lovers who wish to delve into the critical and human vision of one of the most important prose writers in contemporary Hispanic letters.
