El estrecho puente del arte

This volume brings together, for the first time in Spanish, Virginia Woolf's famous writing lessons -true literary epiphanies- regarding the art of fiction and biography. Through his reading gaze, he reflects on the literature of British personalities such as Jane Austen and George Eliot, Russians such as Fyodor Dostoyevsky, Anton Chekhov and Leo Tolstoy, Frenchmen such as Guy de Maupassant and Marcel Proust, and Americans such as Henry James, Ernest Hemingway and Henry David Thoreau. In each of these essays, the metaphor of The Narrow Bridge of Art reverberates, which is none other than the one that Virginia Woolf uses to reflect on the journey that the writer has to make while she decides what to take with her ancestors and what to offer her contemporaries.
