«Nada» is the novel by Carmen Laforet, published by Diario El País, S.A. in paperback, in Spanish.
Andrea arrives in postwar Barcelona to study humanities and stays at her grandmother's house, where a hostile and violent atmosphere reigns. The warmth of university life, personified in the luminous Ena, contrasts with that closed and decadent home; the novel portrays the moral and material decline of a bourgeois family of the era.
The work belongs to the collection El País Clásicos Españoles, number 49, and won the Premio Nadal in 1944.
A contemporary classic that continues to interest readers of twentieth-century Spanish literature.
Carmen Laforet was a Spanish author who wrote in the period after the Spanish Civil War. An important European writer, her works contributed to the school of Existentialist Literature and her first novel Nada continued the Spanish tremendismo literary style begun by Camilo José Cela with his novel, La familia de Pascual Duarte. She received the Premio Nadal in 1944.
