Important notice to customers: My two hardback editions, which include a CD of the entire book read by me, are no longer in stock or available for sale. On Amazon I have found both priced at astronomical prices ($718,56 and $244,97 respectively) by an Amazon seller and which I have complained to Amazon about but whom have informed me they have no control over what sellers price books by. They were each originally priced at 10Euros, so please do NOT pay for anything over that if you find them second hand etc.

However, rest assured that the ebooks are correctly priced and are - at present - in my hand to control. I hope you enjoy reading the adventures of Birgitta and Stefan!
Happy Reading!

Summary. This research paper was part of the award of Diploma de Estudios Avanzados, (MRes equivalent).
Al leer a Virginia Woolf y a otros autores ingleses de su época, me fijé en que existe una cierta hostilidad de los autores hacia sus personajes y entre los personajes mismos. Esta hostilidad se manifiesta en forma del diálogo o en monólogos interiores, y de una manera más implícita en las narraciones descriptivas de los personajes. Los personajes buscan objetivamente la compañía de otros para que les den respuestas a preguntas o temas que suelen ser, por ejemplo, la vida, la propia existencia, la conducta o el sistema social; a la vez no pueden evitar sentir una repugnancia, un odio y un enfado hacia el otro y hacia todo. He vuelto a encontrar este factor en las primeras obras de Ana María Matute, y me preguntaba si esta presencia del odio en el argumento sería intencional, (una herramienta creativa funcional) o de pura coincidencia, que sería algo subconsciente por parte del escritor. Quizás era fortuito el hecho de que fueran – son – personas que han pasado por una guerra (o dos) y casualmente tienen el don de escribir y reflejan lo que la mayoría (que no escribieron) también sentían. Esto último lo apoya Ana María Matute al decir que para ella escribir es una protesta, es preguntar, es mostrarse inconformista. Creo que sería interesante estudiar (más adelante, no aquí) la relación que los autores de guerras (digo, quienes escribieron en épocas de entre-guerras) mantienen con su obra, entre el ser y el subconsciente y como reflejos de su propia sociedad.
