description | The literary career of Isabel-Clara Simó (1943-2020) has been developed mainly in the narrative genres. Thus, she alternated between writing and publishing novels and short stories. It is in this sub-genre where we want to focus our analysis, as it was in these, probably due to its brevity, that she offered greater samples of stylistic and thematic experimentation that she later deployed in the novels. The author experiments in various sub-genres and styles, which lead us to find a great structural heterogeneity in her texts. However, a common fact can stand out which is the importance that the author attaches to the treatment of narrative voices as a reflection of the reality in which the characters evolve. In our research we focus on several short stories that the author left unpublished and that, through the family, we were able to consult. We also analyse the last of her publications, the volume Prime Time. Irreverences (2019), which for various reasons has not been distributed in commercial channels. Fundamental texts to understand the evolution –with the permanent will to experiment– of her stylistics and the diversity of her themes. |
