Lumen — Escritoras

Expand to read more about this work

Ana Jarén illustrates Escritoras by Carmen G. de la Cueva, published by Lumen, a book about Spanish women writers, friendship, creativity and literary memory.

The volume brings together figures such as Emilia Pardo Bazán, Carmen Martín Gaite, María Lejárraga, Elena Fortún and Carmen Laforet. Ana’s portraits and narrative scenes connect biography with domestic and creative detail, helping the book present literary history as a network of lives, relationships and spaces rather than a sequence of isolated names.
