Well, it all started with Cervantes and Don Quixote, didn't it? Didn't it?
Keeping to Spain, rather than other Spanish speaking nations, Spanish literature seems to be something I buy rather than read. I've got a few titles sitting on my shelves and, such as Carmen Laforet's Nada and Carlos Ruiz Zaf?n's The Shadow Of The Wind. I did get round to Quim Monz?'s The Enormity Of The Tragedy, though. Beyond that I'm clueless but I've noticed a rise in Spanish translations appearing in book stores - at least the ones I visit.
And Spain must have a wealth of literature waiting to be read. It's a huge country, the legacy of it's language can be heard all over the New World. And it's given us five Nobel laureates in Jos? Echegaray, Jacinto Benavente, Juan Ram?n Jim?nez, Vicente Aleixandre, and Camilo Jos? Cela.
Spanish writers, dramatists, poets: who's worth reading?
