description | The Raval district is probably the most important in contemporary Barcelona literature. The literary representations of this territory show a space with a strong tendency to physical and human metamorphosis. Home to popular classes, a place of welcome for new arrivals, and a platform for margins and prostitution, the Raval has fascinated writers, particularly during the 20th century. In this article we will study the social imaginary of four novels, analysed as part of my doctoral thesis on the literary identity of Barcelona. |
