La maternidad era eso

This narrative essay aims to respond to an interest shared by many about mothers as characters in 20th century novels from a global perspective; Trujillo does not attempt to present a definition of what it means to be a mother, but rather to offer a critical look at the literary motherhoods of the last century. What are the mothers who created the great writers of the 20th century like? What archetypes do they reproduce? Are they still valid today? Prepare for an extraordinary journey: Proust, Deledda, Joyce, Schnitzler, Mistral, Woolf, Némirovsky, Sachs, Brecht, Greene, Rich and Rodoreda are just some of the stops proposed on this original literary tour.
