Descripción
Sumario:In this essay, we will analyze, from a diversity perspective, the stories which are included in the book Mala letra (2016), by the Spanish writer Sara Mesa (Madrid, 1976). We start from its characters’ great variety and heterogeneity to explore how, through them, the complexity and diversity of our world is reflected. In order to simplify our analysis, the work has been divided into two parts. In a first part, we have analyzed those stories which deal with diversity from an age point of view and which focus on childhood. This is a central subject in Sara Mesa’s fiction to the extent that it plays a key role in shaping identity. In a second part, we have paid at-tention to those stories in which the accent is placed on gender diversity and which show the inequalities women have to face in their careers and family lives.
